After removing corrupted, file Net Framework 2.0. The installation of Net

Framework 3.0 has Program called Cardspace. I have read the white pages

about this but do not see any application for the home user. Could you please

give a good reason why not to delete this file?

Also in the Add/Remove Programs, which files is this? I am thinking it is in

framework 3.0- Service Pack 1 titled Net Framework WCS.

Many Thanks

Wanting to remove this programme\addition\utility myself, I neither could

found how. Short of removing .NET Framework 3.x I may not be removeable. You

can hinder it by going into Control Panel | Services, locate Windows

CardSpace and set it to 'Disable". Stop it if it has been started.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did do that afterreading about Cardspace.!

 

I'm thinking cardspace is just another minor resource hog. Possible a

privicy threat as well!

In addition to the service "Windows CardSpace" you can disable "Smart Card".

It is not that easy to uninstall completely, as far as I can tell.
