Greetings --
As the result of a lawsuit by Sun Microsystems, and the ensuing
settlement, Microsoft was not allowed to provide its own Java Virtual
Machine to Windows XP users. You can get almost the same
functionality by downloading Sun's version of Java from
http://java.sun.com/getjava/index.html. If you want the wider website
compatibility of Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine, it is still
available from a lot of 3rd-party web sites, some of which are listed
here: http://www.java-virtual-machine.net/download.html.
If you do choose the Microsoft JVM, be sure to visit Windows
Update to apply a needed security patch.

On this subject, I removed MS Java, for security reasons, and installed Sun
Java. As far as I know I followed all advice on what components to remove,
including Registry entries. However, when visiting sites that require Java
I get a message to the effect that MS Java is not installed. The page
displays OK via Sun Java, but this MS Java warning message is irksome. Is
there anyway to prevent this message?

You'll probably have to take that up with the designers of the web
sites in question, and ask them to redesign their site(s) to check for
Sun's Java.

It's possible it's being caused by an entry left over from the MS Java
install. In addition to what Bruce has suggested, if the install of MS Java
was not too long ago, you might try using System Restore to take you back to
a time prior to when it was installed. Note, according to the time line
you've outlined, this would also remove Sun's Java but you can reinstall
Sun's Java after you perform this procedure. Start\All
Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Restore.
I can't guarantee this will resolve the issue because it may simply be a
function of how this page was designed as Bruce has suggested.

Thanks for your suggestions/advice. Unfortunately MS Java installed with
the original installation of WINXP. I would assume that the problem lies in
the suggestion that a "remnant" of MS Java is still lurking in the Registry
as I seem to get this problem with all the Sun Java test sites. I'll need
to investigate and hopefully if the Registry entry is obvious I can identify
it. I the meantime I will continue to be "irked"
