Good question. I leave them all on my system as some applications look for specific framework levels. Some of the .net stuff has been obsoleted in favor of newer methods, but I am not sure that there is 100% backward compatibility.

I would leave it for now. I will do some research into this and get back to you.

It will be a couple of days as I am at home and I'm not going to try any serious research on dial-up :D
