Jimmy S. said:Hi Carolina Girl,
Online games are usually developed using Flash, Java, or Virtual Machine.
The most likely solution to a problem with an online game is to install, upgrade,
or reinstall the right one for the game site you're playing on.
A. For Zone.com games: Zone.com are converting most of their games for Flash
to avoid the conflicts between the Sun Java system and Microsoft's Virtual Machine.
Install Flash from: http://sdc.shockwave.com/shockwave/download/frameset.fhtml
B. Most other game sites still use Java. You can install Java and find more help
tips at this webpage: http://java.com/en/download/help/pogo.jsp
C. If the online game still won't load, or gives you errors, try these steps:
1. Click START / Control Panel / Internet Options and click on the Advanced Tab.
2. Below HTTP 1.1 is the Sun Java/ Microsoft VM section: Make sure all Java choices
are unchecked (especially JIT) and then press [OK]. You may be prompted to reboot.
3. If you don't see a Microsoft VM section then download Microsoft Virtual Machine for:
Windows 98 / Me / NT / XP from: http://www.abxair.com/software/msjavx86.exe
4. After you download Java, double-click the file to install it, reboot and then follow
the directions in Steps 1. and 2..to disable JIT compiler and other advanced options.
* Whenever you get a Java Virtual Machine Security Update from Windows Update, you
will have to follow Steps 1. and 2..to disable JIT compiler and other adv. options again.
6. If the problem persists Adjust Your browser settings using this basic example:
http://www3.sympatico.ca/nibblesnbits/EnterRooms.html#IE
7. Try these suggestions for Zone's Java Games:
http://classic.zone.msn.com/zzzz/help/helpjavagames.asp
8. Maybe it's a software conflict: Make certain that your Firewall or Antivirus program is
not configured to block Java Applets. Norton's products for example have that option.
Regardless, temporarily disable Startup programs one at a time, starting with Firewall,
Antivirus, AdBlockers, & Internet Accelerators using the method in this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=331796
or this utility: http://new.jtsoft2001.com/windows/startup.php
9. If you have a Coffee Cup icon in your system tray (next to the time) you might have a
conflict between MS VM and Java: Uninstall Java using Control Panel / Remove Programs.
10. Run a MS AntiSpyware Scan: www.microsoft.com/spyware
11. Check the Help / Support section of the game site in question for Java topics relevant to
that site. There is usually an email or a (non Java) help chat available as well.

Mummybear said:Hi JImmy,
That site works fine, except for the fact i am not a member, lol, but no
problems loading it with graphics etc. I subscribe to Pogo and pay a
yearly
fee so would really like to access it, all other sites, banking, browing
etc
are all fine, just this one. This i can see is going to be a tricky one. I
tested on a laptop that i have which also runs XP pro SP2 and i have the
same
problem on that one, but since both machines came with XP SP2 pre
installed i
dont suppose there is much i can do. ANy further advise muchly
appreciated.

|||||| Hi Carolina Girl,
||||||
|||||| Online games are usually developed using Flash, Java, or Virtual Machine.
|||||| The most likely solution to a problem with an online game is to install, upgrade,
|||||| or reinstall the right one for the game site you're playing on.
||||||
|||||| A. For Zone.com games: Zone.com are converting most of their games for Flash
|||||| to avoid the conflicts between the Sun Java system and Microsoft's Virtual Machine.
|||||| Install Flash from: http://sdc.shockwave.com/shockwave/download/frameset.fhtml
||||||
|||||| B. Most other game sites still use Java. You can install Java and find more help
|||||| tips at this webpage: http://java.com/en/download/help/pogo.jsp
||||||
|||||| C. If the online game still won't load, or gives you errors, try these steps:
||||||
|||||| 1. Click START / Control Panel / Internet Options and click on the Advanced Tab.
||||||
|||||| 2. Below HTTP 1.1 is the Sun Java/ Microsoft VM section: Make sure all Java choices
|||||| are unchecked (especially JIT) and then press [OK]. You may be prompted to reboot.
||||||
|||||| 3. If you don't see a Microsoft VM section then download Microsoft Virtual Machine for:
|||||| Windows 98 / Me / NT / XP from: http://www.abxair.com/software/msjavx86.exe
||||||
|||||| 4. After you download Java, double-click the file to install it, reboot and then follow
|||||| the directions in Steps 1. and 2..to disable JIT compiler and other advanced options.
