We discussed this a few weeks ago. You used to get it strait from MS updates, then had to hunt it down in MS updates, now no one seems to be able to find it from MS at all.

It is available at microsoft - but only if you know where

M$ Java VM

Suns Java works very well for many apps, but some were written with on M$ vm in mind and will not work with Sun's - no way no how!

Good luck

Thanks Noo, I've been looking for this. For some reason, Sun's version just annoys me.

Try rebooting as installing again, if that dont work, take some of that stuff out of your system tray, reboot and try again

still no one need help

OK, that is very odd indeed

Never had java install fail on me before in any os...

so blind suggestions

1. Try installing in safe mode
2. Uninstall Internet Explorer in safe mode, reinstall in normal mode then install java

Have you got any other browsers?
