The Sun java download site maintains old \nversions (see ref #1).\n\nFor example, version 1.2.2 is available for\nWindows and Solaris at:\n\nhttp://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.2.2_017/\n\nbut there are also downloads for 1.3 and 1.4

Get the latest version of java for your web browser from here\nhttp://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp\n\n(I assume internet explorer 5 at least, iether on windows 2000 or XP (it has IE6 built in)).\nJava is a, Object orientated programming language which is used to write aplets, scripts and some other interesting stuff. If you are getting a lot of error messages from different sites your version is iether very old or you don't have one. Internet explorer comes with microsofts JAVA virtual machine, but you should use the SUN version.\n\nIf it's just acertain site and different page are giving the errors then their may be error with thier code or their server side java handler (not sure it thats the correct term).\n\nI do believe however the problem is on your side. Download the new java and check what happens from there.\n\nOn a more serious note, you or someone might have disabled javascript capablities in your browser for security reasons  but i doubt it.\n\nEDIT: after you install java you might need to check if windows is using the sun java of microsft's implementation, just in case. Assuming you have windows with latest service pack (SP 4 for 2000, SP2 for XP), goto CONTROL PANEL and then ADD REMOVE PROGRAMS. Clcik the icon marked SET PROGRAM ACCESS AND DEFAULTS on the left. Mark the CUSTOM option box and click on the down arrow on the right.Scroll down to CHOOSE A VIRTUAL MACHINE FOR JAVA, make sure it is set to USE MY CURRENT VIRTUAL MACHINE FOR JAVA and press OKAY.\n\nP.S. Get Firefox while you are downloading java, it is way better, but you still need hte new java wether you use Firefox or not http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/\n\nFirefox doesn't have java bundled with it, but it has java support, if i am not mistaken. Opera on the otherhand can be download with the option of having java bundled with it

No, in fact what I did, was uninstalled all of them, then I went to http://www.java.com and simply reinstalled the 5.9 version...\n\nI did it that way just in case I erased the old ones and it would make the 5.9 not work, and also to make sure I had the most up to date version and it installed correctly.\n\nHowever later I checked it on another computer, you can remove the old versions using windows add/remove in control panel.
