Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, I couldn't make any headway. Java
works absolutely fine for "mike" but acts as if it isn't even istalled for
"nancy". I've tried installing from nancy's account - but that just results
in it working again for mike but not for nancy.
I had another idea last night - I created a new account to see if it would
pick up the appropriate settings but this didn't work. Acts the same as
nancy's account. So, it seems that mike is the only user able to use JRE.
I'm baffled!
