Is there any way to create a Windows Application in .NET without having to install the .NET framework on the target machine? After reading the Deploying .NET faq I'm thinking this is a lost cause but I thought I'd ask any way.

Also how much overhead is there when you install the .NET framework. i.e. does it have a large program constantly running in the background? If so I think I'll stick with VB6 for this program.



Thanks
 
The .NET Framework must be installed on the client machine for
the application to run.

The Framework does not run in the background of the computer;
it is merely a set of runtimes that are executed when the
application runs.
