no it will not, java will just add it self on as another set of code ! a lot of web sites and aplications use it as well as othere programs like flash and active x happy gaming and keep asking :)

Everyone is answering sooooo wrong! Javascript is NOT the same as Java! Downloading Java has nothing to do with viewing javascript.\n\nTo view javascript in Internet Explorer, go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Internet > Custom Level > Scripting > Active Scripting > "Enable" > OK > answer "Yes" > Ok

Well depending on your browsr....are you using internet explorer mozzila or some other sort of internet browser if you  you may need to update or download the java,( java is a type of computer language mainly used in programming games). and if after downloading java and it still doesn't work than just GIVE UP(jokes)

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

Download Java or if you have it, update it and make sure you are in the allowed browsers.  Firefox and IE works just fine.

To enable your JAVA, you need to go to Tools then Internet Options on your IE Browser menu on top.\nGo to advanced and then scroll down and look for JAVA and check all the boxes. \nThen go to the Security Tab and click on Custom Level and enable Java scripting.\nIf you need a JAVA runtime program to play games, download it at http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp\nRestart browser.

You need to enable it first.\nThen you have to restatrt your computer.\nI assume you already downloaded it?\n\nGo to your "tools" menu, then to the "advanced" tab, now scroll down till you see "Java". check the box to enable it.\nNow restart....PRESTO!
