The .Net Framework is simply a runtime library that makes applications written for .Net able to run. VB.Net is a Common Language Runtime-targeted programming language that uses the .Net Framework. The similarity in installation is like any other application offered from Microsoft: double-click the .MSI file.
No, they are not the same thing. .NET (dot net) refers to the .NET Framework that can be utilised by any programming language that conforms to the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI). The .NET Framework is primarily composed of the Common Language Runtime (CLR) and the Framework Class Library (FCL). Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is just one of many CLI-compliant languages available. VB.NET is dependent upon .NET.
A programming infrastructure created by Microsoft for building, deploying, and running applications and services that use .NETtechnologies, such as desktop applications and Web services. The .NET Framework contains three major parts: the Common Language Runtime. the Framework Class Library.

The Microsoft .NET Framework is a software framework that can be installed on computers running Microsoft Windows operating systems. It includes a large library of coded solutions to common programming problems and a virtual machine that manages the execution of programs written specifically for the framework. The .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering and is intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows platform. The framework's Base Class Library provides a large range of features including user interface, data and data access, database connectivity, cryptography, web application development, numeric algorithms, and network communications. The class library is used by programmers, who combine it with their own code to produce applications. Programs written for the .NET Framework execute in a software environment that manages the program's runtime requirements. Also part of the .NET Framework, this runtime environment is known as the Common Language Runtime (CLR). The CLR provides the appearance of an application virtual machine so that programmers need not consider the capabilities of the specific CPU that will execute the program. The CLR also provides other important services such as security, memory management, and exception handling. The class library and the CLR together constitute the .NET Framework.

.net platform supports programming languages that are .net compatible. It is the platform using which we can build and develop the applications. .net framework is the engine inside the .net platform which actually compiles and produces the executable code. .net framework contains CLR(Common Language Runtime) and FCL(Framework Class Library) using which it produces the platform independent codes.

The .NET Framework, as that is it's purpose. It IS the library for the .NET languages... hence the name.
Because most of the books are in English. That why it is called library language.
By law, libraries are specifically exempted from copyright infringement. (see related links for the specific language of the law)
special library is a library which caters to a particular kind of users, specific kind of subject and specific kind of material.
