Using XP Pro and IE6 SP1 with XPsp2. I have been trying
to load the pool game at Yahoo.com and only get a blank
page when applet should be loaded. I click on "Cleck Here
if does not load and get nothing. I have looked in
Internet options and can't find anything to enable.
Anyone have some ideas? Yahoo Help did not havr an answer.
 
Hi Gary,

Download MS JavaVM from here:
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/msjavx86.exe

If this does not help, reset the security settings in IE. It's possible that
the yahoo activex components did n't install in your system. (though JVM
might already be available)

Gary,

You can test for operational Java by trying any of these sites. If not
operational you may need to re-install your MS Java VM.

Use ctrl-alt-del to get if off your screen until you make your decision) ;-\

Many of these links were obtained from Jim Byrd MS-MVP. I will also include
below quite a bit of info that Jim has researched and provided on this
issue. I have found these to be of great value and they were definite
"keepers". Thanks Jim.

This is from Jim Byrd MS- MVP:

For the MS Java VM, you may need to install v.3809 prior to upgrading
to v. 3810 if you didn't previous have MS Java v. 3805 or 3809
installed.

If your OS is Win2000 SP2, SP3 but NOT SP4 then you can download and
install the MS Java VM v. 3809 from here:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/m..._510A502BA8F9B6F19230BB2BCCE87D5474AC9DCD.exe
or here:
http://www.biologylab.awlonline.com...icrosoft.Q810030_W2K_SP4_5849/Q810030_W2K.exe

For Win2000 SP4, you'll need to re-install v.3805, from here:
http://www.nhyrvana.com/files/pop.cgi?file=win2kmsjavx86.zip It will
download as Pop.zip. Just unzip it and then execute the resultant
msjavx86. This is the only version that I know of that will re-install
under SP4.

For all other OS's:

Download and install the MS Java VM v. 3809 from one of the links here:
http://www.nhyrvana.com/files/pop.cgi?file=3809.exe (it will be named
pop.exe), or here:
http://www.biologylab.awlonline.com...XP/com_microsoft.javavm_3809_5853/msjavwu.exe,
or here:
http://secinfo.huji.ac.il/patches/Win-xp/msjavwu.exe


Then upgrade to v. 3810:

For all OS's except Win2k, obtain v. 3810 here:
http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail.php3?fid=1050022631

For all versions of Win2k - SP2, SP3 or SP4 - obtain v. 3810 here:
http://download.microsoft.com/downl...-9b18-423356321682/Q816093_W2K_SP4_X86_EN.exe

Both Java VM's can co-exist on your machine quite nicely. Just select
which one you want to use in Tools|Internet Options|Advanced and restart
all IE browsers. Here, courtesy of Michel Gallant, MVP Security, is a
tiny utility which allows you to toggle and view status of your current
Java VM vendor associated with IE:
http://pages.istar.ca/~neutron/SelectIEJVM

A note from Mitch Gallant:

"One note about the JVM Selector utility:
If/when you install a new version of Sun J2SE, you need to manually
select to have Sun JVM as default JVM for IE (in install), or after
install
via the JavaPlugin control panel. This generates the necessary win32
registry entries, which must be present for the utility to know about
JavaPlugin.
After that, the utility should work properly."
