After i re-formatted, when i view websites, it prompts me to download Virtual Machine, i click ok, it sends me to the Microsoft website, but they don't have it to download anymore.

Anyone know where i can get it???

Cheers...
 
I had a IE problem and find that when i installed Java VM it IE didnt work. I think Java is in a install option of IE6 though i had to select it. But u can DL somewhere.
 
Mikrosoft doesn't want its users to use Java. You are supposed to use .NET, XML, ActiveX, Directthis'n'that etc.. :giddy:
From Updated Microsoft Virtual Machine for Windows Operating Systems:
The Microsoft VM update for Windows is no longer available at this site.

Please visit Windows Update (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com) to see if a Microsoft VM update is available for your operating system.
Which version of IE do you use? Java isn't included by default in IE6.
I doubt whether Sun's JVM works with IE, but it's here:

Thanks for the replies...

Im using IE 6, and Windoze Eggs-Pea.

Thanks for the link, but im clueless as to which one i need to download.
There must be over 15 different ones to download:confused:
all with wierd names and words!!!:confused:

Any help would be appreciated...
 
Thanks for the links...

Installed it and it works fine, but seems to run really slow...

Nothing like it was with Microsofts one.

Is there anyway i can get the original back on (microsoft's)???
 
Well you could try Sun's JRE 1.4.1 beta, I don't know if it's faster though. A slow Java is better than no Java, right?
All the links for M$ VM I've found are either obsolete or lead to M$'s site which tells to go to windowsupdate site.
As M$ doesn't call it Java, you may find something by searching for "Microsoft Virtual Machine".
