Topmoxie Installation Error...Topmoxie requires the VM Java

[Rob]

For some unknown reason my other computer has started producing an error
message on startup. As follows: "Topmoxie Installation Error" - Topmoxie
requires the Microsoft VM. Download it from
Http://www.microsoft.com/java/vm/dl_vm40.htm.

I downloaded the Java and successfully installed it. The error message still
appears at startup. I've researched high and low for this topmoxie issue
before I decided to post this request for help.

FYI - I'm using XP Pro and I did not make any recent changes or
installations, etc., prior to this error message appearing.

Thanks in advance for your assistance, Rob.
