Please help me out, the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) drives me nuts

[456]

Hi guys

I recently reformat my Hard drive and install Windows XP Home Edition and then use the Windows Update to download SP1 along with other updates.

However, after I reboot my PC, I try to install some software to enable me listening to the streaming audio but there is a pop up message says I need the MS Java Virtual Machine (JVM), so I click on link and try to download it via Windows Updates but due to the Fourth Circuit Court decision, Microsoft remove the JVm from Microsof site. So I am now getting no where.

If I can get MS JVm build 3805 from my friend and install that onto my Pc, do u think that will resolve my problem right away ??

Please kindly advise ASAP.

I downloaded and saved a copy of VM just before it was pulled from the Microsoft site.

Email me for details on how/where to get a copy.

I would download java from sun. M$ actually removed their JVM due to copyright restrictions. Sun has the best java runner out there in my opinion. I have never had a problem with it.
