Put the check I described as the First Condition in your first MSI in your bundle chain. Coding a link in the message box may require escaping characters and such, but is doable.
With that in mind, the code you removed in your first post is the most elegant method of doing this. Instead of removing it all together, why not replace the cached copy of Net11 with a download URL in the original code? The tradeoff though is: What you save in Diskspace, you may lose in Download time...
