On my WinXP system I installed some time ago successfully the well known J2EE v1.6 Java system.

When I visit now an Internet web page a Java plugin is required to run some content (applets)
IntExp 6 thinks that he needs an ActiveX Java Plugin and asks me if he should load
the ActiveX java Plugin

jinstall-1_4-windows-i586.cab

from Sun server.

Ok, I could allow that.

But I am wondering why the existing v1.6 J2EE Java installation does not already provide
all the necessary system wide Java stuff. Can I tell IntExp to use the existing
J2EE installation ?

How can I find out if an IntExp has already the Java ActiveX plugin
installed and if yes: Which version ?

To test your Java version, go to
http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp - and click the "Verify
installation" button.

To see what version(s) of Java are installed, go to
Start...Settings...Control Panel...Java, Java tab. Click either view button
to see the versions installed - the bottom one will allow you to
enable/disable previous versions.

Some applications look for a specific version of Java to run.

Where can I get other versions of the JRE (older versions and newer
versions) and related documentation?

Can I remove older versions of the JRE after installing a newer version?
