IE 6.0 Microsoft JVM Problem

D

DaveW

Ever since I installed IE 6.0, I get prompted with
the 'Install on Demand' window telling me that I must
install the 'Java virtual machine' to display the page
correctly. The weird thing is that I have the Microsoft
JVM on my machine (Microsoft (R) VM for Java, 5.0 Release
5.0.0.3810).

If I select 'Cancel', Java Applets do not start on any
pages in that instance of the browser.

If I select 'Download',
'http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/getosver/javaxp.asp'
is launched in a new browser. The applet starts and
everything is fine. Unfortunately, I get this popup every
time a page with an applet is loaded. The download page
informs me that I cannot download the JVM anymore (of
course that should be fine since I already have it
installed!)

Any ideas on how to stop this annoying behavior would be
appreciated. Thanks.

That's an older version. See Java VM:
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm#java2
Understand that because of a court decision Microsoft will stop all Java
support after 30 SEP 04.
Sun version

Are you sure that wjview is the file to check? According
to the web page that you referred me to,
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm#java2, I
should be checking jview. My jview version is 5.00.3810.

jview.exe is listed as a file in the 816093 update.
wjview is not listed as part of the update.
msjava.dll and javart.dll are also listed with the
5.00.3810 version. I checked these files on my machine
and the versions match.

I am running Windows 2000 SP 2 - IE 6.0.2800.1106

jview from an command prompt, wjview from Start | Run.
You seem to be current. I don't know what's wrong.
