java

[Paul]

I belong to a web site that has chat rooms. I recently
purchased this machine, it is running xphome. It is a hp
pavillion a320n. Since purchasing this machine whenever I
try to enter a chat room in that website all I get is an
empty box that I cant do anything in. When I try, a java
icon appears in the upper left hand corner. Every thing
else on that web site seems to work fine, as well as any
thing else on the www that I can tell. Maybe 1 or 2 other
place this may have appeared. I have never had this
problem before on any other machines. Any ideas?

Install Sun's Java from this link:

Greetings --

Have you installed any java capability?

As the result of a lawsuit by Sun Microsystems, and the ensuing
settlement, Microsoft is no longer allowed to provide its own Java
Virtual Machine to Windows users. You can get almost the same
functionality by downloading Sun's version of Java from
http://java.sun.com/getjava/index.html. If you want the broader
capabilities of Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine, it is still
available from a lot of 3rd-party web sites, some of which are listed
here: http://www.java-virtual-machine.net/download.html.
