Thanks for your reply Carey. I ended up installing MS java VM to fix the
problem.

I'm not really sure what the big difference is, but if it works...

The big difference is Microsoft doesn't distribute "msjava" anymore. And
about time, in my opinion. I've had msjava crash Win2K SP4 to a blue sreen
on Java-heavy sites like pogo.com, which seems odd since Java was designed
to isolate the applet from the system. The whole "virtual machine" thing.

The current and supported Java Run-time environment for Windows is Sun's JRE
1.4.2. There's a 1.5.0 but not everyone's code is working with that yet.
Get them from http://java.sun.com/.
