I am trying to play a game at GAMESVILLE.COM
I was able to do so before, but inadvertantly disabled the Java. I
reinstalled the Java 1.4..... but still cannot get the graphics to play the
game. How do I go about re-installing for Windows 98
Does anyoone have any idea,
Please help

You might try the following and see if it helps. If not, then you will have
to repair the IE (instructions below):

(Understand that because of a court decision Microsoft will stop all Java
support after 30 SEP 04, and is recommending that you use the Sun JRE.)

This site provides you with the information on how to upgrade and install
the Sun Java, and other important information.

Sun also offers an automatic download and install of the 1.4 Java plug-in
here:

You can get the Sun Java J2SE RunTimes or SDK here:
