The bundle of the .Net 4.5 online installer can be done in two ways, i
think :
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10110978/how-to-install-net-framework-only-when-its-not-already-installed
Which is maybe a bit crude.
The user will not have any explanations on why an additional software
must be installed.
Or like the current Java install : a custom page with a short
explanation and a .Net 4.5 installation button. (that means more custom
code).

To be honest, at this point, i'm not really a fan of a .Net FreenetTray
anymore :( .
Imagine someone on Vista or Seven, who neither has Java nor .Net 4.5
(both are online installations) and want to give Freenet a try : doesn't
this installation seems to be cumbersome ?
(but same thing is true for someone on windows 8/8.1 with a .Net 3.5
FreenetTray)

Hence my question:
Does a Java FreenetTray could be more suitable ? or Python + Qt maybe ?
