When I visit a number of sites on the web, I get a pop-up
message that reads "To display this page correctly, you
need to download and install the following components:
JAVA virtual machine"

After I click the 'download box', it refers me to
www.microsoft.com/java but there's no particular/specific
download. When I check the Windows 2000 update page, it
indicates that I have all of the latest downloads. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

This is because of MS ending official support for java, and no longer
including a JVM in their OS's.
You have 3 choices :

- Don't use java, and all of the applications that require it ( this is
actually getting harder in some cases, as java application performance
has increased, along with hardware performance increases. Also, alot of
vendors are using java based applications for administering their
equipment...IBM is a good example of this )

- Use Sun's JVM. 1.4.2 seems to be a big improvement over earlier
version, both in stability and performance...

- Download the MS JVM from another location. There are links here :
