First of all: make sure you have scripting enabled in Tools, Internet
Options, Advanced. You might have it installed but disabled.

In case you have to install it, you can find Windows Scripting Host at
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms950396.aspx

Kind regards

Nope, that's not the message you are getting. You are being told to
install Java, not Javascript. The 2 are not the same anymore than Word
and WordPerfect are the same. The Javascript interpreter is built into
the browser. It is the browser that does the interpretation of the
Javascript script code. Java is completely different and does require a
download (from Sun). If you are getting an error that Javascript is not
enabled then you have the settings for disable of scripting for whatever
security zone that site is being rendered under (probably the Internet
security zone). If the message is that you need to download Java then
go to Sun to get it, but that's not Javascript.

open the browser you wish to install java in....go to this website

http://www.java.com/getjava/

It is Sun Java installion page..if you have anti-virus or a firewall,
disable it beofre preceding, so it will install correctly or leave it on and
say allow if prompted...
