JJBhatt Thanks for the question that revealed the answer from hyeitsme so thanks again. i know now

I suppose it would be the Microsoft .NET Framework.

If you want a more detailed breakdown of why it is actually called .NET, which according to this Stack Overflow discussion, it doesn't appear to actually be an acrynoym : 

• Why is .NET called .NET? and Is It An Acronym?
  

I believe that they referred to ".NET" as a brand that applied generally to "internet and networking-related services".

This link implies that .NET is short for "Network Enabled Technologies", however according to the following statement, the term ".NET" is actually not an acronym : 

In the beginning - around 1997 - there was Project Lightning. It was also known as Project 42 because DevDiv (Microsoft's Developer Division) lived (and still lives) in Building 42 on the Redmond Campus. (I've always thought that was an awesome building
number for DevDiv with the little hat tip to Douglas Adams' Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I've always wondered if it was intentional.) Early press announcements referred to it as "Next Generation Windows Services". Eventually Project Lightning was dubbed
Microsoft .NET, though some code names have been forever baked into the system.

Marketing was thinking of calling it COM+ 2.0 or the Universal Runtime (URT). Another idea was the COM Object Runtime (COR). Hence mscorlib.dll, which is still the assembly that holds the CLR's main types and is the one assembly that must be loaded in
every .NET app domain. (System.dll is often loaded, but need not be. Mscorlib.dll contains the code for System.String, System.Int32, etc. You honestly can't do anything without mscorlib.dll loaded.)
