Summary
At ArcGIS Desktop 10 users install ArcObjects SDK for .NET (Desktop and Engine Included) which also automatically installs .NET support. The setup for ArcObjects SDK for .NET is available in the installation DVD.Below are the two instances in which .NET support would not be automatically installed with ArcGIS Desktop.
• The version of the .NET Framework installed on the computer was not the correct version at the time that the ArcGIS Desktop install was performed.
The versions need to match as follows:
• ArcGIS 9.2 - .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.0
• ArcGIS 9.3 - .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.0
• ArcGIS 10.0 - .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
To download the .NET Framework, see the links in the Related Information section below.Procedure
2) Beside ArcGIS Desktop, click the Change button.
3) Select to 'Modify' installation, then click Next.
4) Click the icon next to .NET Support and select the option 'Entire feature will be installed on local hard drive.'
5) Continue through the wizard to complete the installation.
To ensure that .NET support has been installed, browse to '%install path%\ArcGIS' and verify that there is a DotNet folder located there.

The article is incorrect or the solution didn’t work.
Spent 5.5 hours with an IT specialist trying to download 3.5 SP1 from the net or the disc with the ARC GIS desktop Education Edition, enabling me to install the software on my desktop. Couldn't do it.

The article needs to be updated.
AFAIK ArcGIS 10 requires .NET Framework 3.5 to be installed, but there is no .NET Support feature to select during the ArcGIS installation. It seems it is now part of the 'core' install.

There is no option to select .NET Support within the arcgis 10 .exe file! Frustrating!
