>B. Most other game sites still use Java. You can
install Java and find more help

errors, try these steps:

>1. Click START / Control Panel / Internet Options and
click on the Advanced Tab.

>2. Below HTTP 1.1 is the Sun Java/ Microsoft VM
section: Make sure all Java choices

You may be prompted to reboot.

>3. If you don't see a Microsoft VM section then download
Microsoft Virtual Machine for:

http://www.abxair.com/software/msjavx86.exe

>6. If the problem persists Adjust Your browser settings
using this basic example:

>7. Try these suggestions for Zone's Java Games:

>8. Maybe it's a software conflict: Make certain that
your Firewall or Antivirus program is

products for example have that option.
> If you're unsure temporarily disable Startup
programs one at a time, starting with Firewall,
> Antivirus & AdBlockers using:
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=331796

http://new.jtsoft2001.com/windows/startup.php

>9. If you have a Coffee Cup icon in your system tray
(next to the time) you might have a

using Control Panel / Remove Programs.

>10. Check the Help / Support section of the game site in
question for Java topics relevant to

Java) help chat available as well. :-)
