Re: ActiveX problems

Hi Charlie

At the office which has MS VM Java the webcam works ok - I've haven't
tried the Essex University pages at the office - will try tomorrow -
not at work today it's a public holiday today.

Thanks for the links to the MS Java VM files - I'd tried that route
before but all the downloads I've tried including the 2 you posted
just seem to be upgrades the installation stops with a message saying
that Java VM is not installed and it will only upgrade over a current
version of Microsoft VM.


Regards Steve.
