Java VM Problem in XP Pro

[chazdg]

I was trying to log on to the Yahoo Chat on the Yahoo website. I get an
error message saying "Unable to load applet. You May Need to upload an
updated version of the Microsoft VM. I did that and rebooted my pc but I
still get the same error message. Is there a fix for this problem? Thanks
everyone.

Hi Chaz,
Did you enable MVM in IE / Tools / Advanced?
I use the Sun Java plug in for playing Yahoo games, have you tried that
option? Unsure if it will work for the Yahoo chat rooms, never been in
one, but it's worth a try.

Well I to am using Sun Java with no problems. Uner JVM, JIT Compiler for
virtual machine enabled is checked off. The other two entries are not. Is
there something else I am missing?

I checked my settings in IE / and have all three checked under Microsoft
VM, as well as having the Plug in enabled. You need to know what version
you have installed. (see below).
I have been trying all those settings with Yahoo Chat, and the only
thing I seem to be able to use are ALL those settings I mentioned
enabled.
Having said that, I DID delete all the temporary internet files, as
well, have you?
