Hi BJD :-)

The microsoft.com is a secured site. Try the following and see if it helps:

Problems accessing secure sites/ cannot install 128 bit encryption

or...........for XP

To download Java VM for XP:

Download the Microsoft Java VM for Windows XP here
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps

Jan :)
