Ever since I installed the Spyware tool I am having
problems with certain webpages. It seems to be on pages
with a lot of java or those with alot of links.

For example .. www.nascar.com/drivers

This page just locks up.
 
Greg, I went to this site with no problems experienced. I am using MSAS ver
..509 with latest defs and on MSN 9.0 Dial-up.
It must be something else with your computer configuration. Try
cleaning out your temp files/temporary internet files and IE history folder.
If you are using WinXP SP2 you need to download Sun Java
runtime environment because the MS Java was removed in agreement between MS
and Sun.
You can download from link below. Choose the windows offline download

When I went to link I had to register, which I did, but
then it takes me to a page with stuff for sale. I choose
the free down load pasge but I am not sure what to
download from there.

Terrific. You may remember reading about security issues with Microsoft's
Java implementation. Sun's is no different in this regard--there are
security risks involved in having it available on your machine. Make sure
you've set up autoupdate for it--there is a control panel applet that lets
you check on this. Make sure you are on the latest version--1.5.x at the
moment, as I recall. In addition, as Sun releases new versions and they are
updated on your machine, their update process doe not remove the older one.
Since these run about 100 megabytes per version, and since having the older
ones present constitutes a security risk (if the update was done because of
a security issue)--it is important to remove the older ones. So check out
add or remove programs periodically and remove older java implementations.
