This question has been asked/answered hundreds of times and the information
is available by doing a Search of the newsgroup. For java issues, check out
the information on Microsoft MVP Sandi Hardmeier's site -
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm#java She has info on how to
determine which version of the Virtual Machine you've got installed, if any
and good links for additional downloads if you need to install.
 
i went to the site you posted, and it tells you what
update, or whatever, you need to download. and it doesn't
show up when i scan for updates. where can i search for
it?
 
Hi Monica,

You can install JAVA (Virtual Machine) from either SUN or Microsoft:

SUN Java:
http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_automatic.jsp

Microsoft "Java":
http://www.abxair.com/software/msjavx86.exe

SUN won a court case which is why Microsoft doesn't host that file,
and also why I recommend SUN Java first, and Microsoft second and
only as a workaround until any problems with SUN Java are resolved.

You didn't apparently go down the page far enough, Monica. There are six
links at the bottom.
 
Agreed, and probably the majority of web sites are based on Microsoft's
version, too. Makes it bad.
