Trouble Downloading .NET 3.5 SP1
I'm working on a Basic MSI install and need to include .NET 3.5 SP1 (32-bit).
However, when I go to the Redistributables view, right-click on the prerequisite, and select Download, it shows a download message, but never finishes.
If I look in C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2009\SetupPrerequisites\Microsoft .net\3.5 SP1\Full, I see dotnetfx35.exe, but no Helper.exe like there is in other .NET folders. In fact, when I build the release, it gives an error that says that it can't copy the Helper.exe file to the release folder. Makes sense, it wasn't downloaded.
I have even rebooted my machine and started fresh, but still unable to install it and have IS recognize that it's been downloaded.
Any ideas?

Well, I just noticed that it now says that .NET 3.5 SP1 has been downloaded.
Funny, it took over an hour to download it (on DSL), but now that I look, it's a 235 MB file, so that makes sense.
So, no problems here anymore. False alarm.
