Java Runtime d/l hiding

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion (More info?)

I tried to d/l the Java Runtime Environment program to W98/ IE6.
According to the Java d/l site, the Verify signal (animated steaming cup of
coffee) indicated a successful d/l. During the installation, *no* cues nor
clues appeared to indicate where the program would be installed.
When I tried to "Find" the program, I tried: "C: \Program
Files\Java\xxxx.1.[45].digit\\bin" and "java.exe" and every combo I could
think up, but no luck. I looked at my temp-internet files and couldn't see
anything there, either.

It is a given that I have spazzed someplace here. Can any of you CSI
types, (Computer Spazz Investigations) clue me in?

"Get more RAM" seems to be the only workaround.

Glen;

I know, I know; I'm procrastinating. I am probably going to have to go
over to the enemy (Mac G5) to optimise the programs I want to run and I'm
still trying to find a compelling reason to stay with Uncle Bill & the Boys
(& Girls). The i-Life Platform and Garage Band Suite are exactly what I am
looking for and in it's simplest configuration.

À bientôt,

rooster

Not at all. I am connected right now with dial-up. I can close my browser and
newsreader and still be connected through DUN. So, where's the problem? The only
time this would be a problem is if you use <shudder> AOL....but that's not really an
ISP, is it?

I thought that too at first, but that is because I have my settings to
disconnect when I close the browser. I would just have to say stay connected
when I get the autodisconnect But I won't install their Java. And they had
no good support - last time I looked.

....and Sun's updating methods are horrendous. I have gotten so fed up with them
that I have reverted for now back to the MS JVM.

Once you get to China, stand on your head, or you'll be up-side-down!
DON'T turn into a little-ender, rooster, JUST like Blanton did!
