Re: Java won't work

Do not lower your Security Zone settings to accommodate Java. Have
you checked to see if the MS Java VM is still installed ? It appears in
the Internet Options, Advanced (TAB). It sounds like the Add-In is
installed, but not properly enabled. Also, have many versions of Sun
Java are installed on your PC (Add/Remove Programs). You should
also check C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files and see if the
Java instances have the Status field shown as "Damaged" and not the
expected "Installed". Finally, do you use a 3rd-Party Firewall that may
have a rule for "Blocking" Java enabled ?

Thank you for your interest.
Temporarily I have set my security levels to low for everything.
In IE, when trying to include my required sites to 'Trusted Sites' it
tells me that they must be prefixed https:// however the sites will not
respond to this.
But i'm still getting "Sorry you need a Java-enabled browser for
the........"
I'm running out of ideas!

I have installed the latest Java 50.0.6 software.
The tests on the Java site prove that it is working.
However if I try to access a site that uses a Java applet I get a

work, but I
cannot get any of their applets to work on websites.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks J King

What browser are you using?
If IE, what are your security settings on the Internet zone, etc? Have
you tried adding the sites you like to your trusted sites and setting the
security therein to 'low' ?
