Hi Jim,

As promised, here is the situation after two days of fumbling and
struggling to install VM on the 4 machines I maintain. I managed to get
3 of them work after lots of trials and errors, the process not being
apparently as straightforward as running two installers. On the forth
machine (SP3, IE6sp1), nothing seems to work. None of the installers
seem to check for previous installations and when one does, (3810), it
reports that I am trying to overwrite a newer installation with an older
one!

Is there some more structured approach to this problem? How is possible
to remove all traces of MS java to start a clean install ? The approach
suggested does not work here (and I am unable to say which approach
worked for the 3 first machines since each apparead to behave
differently; they are not strictly identical) and I am running out of
ideas ... and may be of patience!! :).

Regards
