How to get Java Virtual machine so I can play Yahoo Games?

[Guest]

I have windows Xp and I am trying to play cards on the Yahoo.com website. I keep getting an error that I require Java Virtual machine to play. When I try to download it from the Microsoft site it does not exist. Where can I get this? My e-mail address is tigers_rule_the_kingdom(howareyou)@yahoo.com excluding the words in brackets

Thanks.

You read the MS java page v.carefully, and in small print there is a link to
the sun site to download.

Greetings --

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.
