107606 Posted February 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 Yes. The things that vare not loading are, as far as i know at the moment, a graph and a chat applet (including banners on the same site) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 What java do you have loaded? MS virtual machine or sun java? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
107606 Posted February 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 No idea how can i find out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 Well here is a screen shot of my internet options, you can see that I have Sun Java loaded. I followed the instructions here to uninstall MS virtual machine and load Sun and I haven't had any problems with java applets at all.

Scarecrow Man Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 Remove MSJava following Nellie's Link, then download and install the following.http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/jre/install.htmlNel, I edited your link to point to the MSJava removal instead of the articles section. Hope you dont mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 The "correct" download for Java for us earthly souls (i.e. those not blessed with reading loads of computer jargon) is:http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_automatic.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Anyway, nothing happens when opening this with Firefox). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuzzman Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Yes, that's because it uses ActiveX to download the Java client - nothing will happen with this (no ActiveX support in FF thank god). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
