Specs:
OS: MS-XP Professional Ver. 2002 Service Pack 1
Browser: IE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633
Sun JVM: 1.4.2_01 (build 1.4.2_01-b06)

I'm working on a web site with Java Applets and they've been working like a
champ for weeks, until I accepted the most recent Windows Update - which
updated my browser version. Now I get a message that the JavaApplets cannot
load. I have a friend who's helping with me with the development of this
site and he's experiencing the same problem.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I've resolved this problem and wanted to share my learnings . . .
1. I discovered that somehow the Microsoft VM was uninstalled.
2. Re-installed the MS VM -

3. Go to "Internet Options", click on "Advanced" tab and enable all options
for "VM" or "MS VM". If you have a Sun JVM loaded, you should disable it.
4. Reboot
5. Download MS Patch: 816093: Security Update Microsoft Virtual Machine
(Microsoft VM) -
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;816093 or you can
run Windows Update and it will identify this patch automatically - much
easier approach :)
6. Reboot
Now you should be back good as new. Hope someone finds this helpful. God
bless!
