My system is XP Home SP1 with all the updates. I installed the MOzilla web
browser to try it out, but decided to go back to IE6. After uninstalling
Mozilla I'm getting Java script erros on many web pages and some others
simply do not work at all. My sense is I need to re-install the Java code
that comes with IE6. But I can't find an install file for it anywehere.

How do I resintall MS Java?
 
Search for microsoft java vm at google or download Sun's Java JRE-but many
sites requiire one or the other.
 
You may have to re-register the Java DLL.

Start /Run and type: regSvr32 msJava.dll

If not, you may have to uninstall Java VM first, then reinstall.

To un-install Java VM :

1. Start /Run, type:

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection java.inf,UnInstall

2. to start the uninstall process.

a. Click Yes to the confirmation, then select Reboot.
b. After the machine restarts, delete the following items:
- the \%systemroot%\Java folder
- Java.pnf from the \%systemroot%\inf folder
- Jview.exe and WJview.exe from the \%systemroot%\system32 folder
- the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Java VM registry <subkey>
- the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AdvancedOptions\
JAVA_VM registry <subkey>
(to remove the Microsoft Internet Explorer--IE--options)

Microsoft Java VM is now removed.
You can now reinstall Java VM or Sun's Java RE.

Can we please be clear whether your problem is with Java - as assumed by
others and in the subject - or with Java Script, as in your description
of the errors you see. They are two entirely different things
