You can tell if the .NET Framework has been installed by looking for the MSCorEE.dll file in the %SystemRoot%\system32 directory. The existence of this file tells you that the .NET Framework is installed.

Current instructions for checking the installed versions of .NET can be found on Microsoft's website:

Starting with version 2.0 of the .NET Framework SDK, Microsoft also ships a command-line utility called CLRVer.exe that shows all of the CLR versions installed on a machine. This utility can also show which version of the CLR is being used by processes currently running on the machine by using the -all switch or passing the ID of the process you are interested in.
