Java Virtual Machine

[billjh@centu]

Recently I read where Microsoft issued a security update for their MSJVM,
Java Virtual Machine, and at the same time recommending to un-install it,
because it is very vulnerable to viruses. I have, Java TM, V.1.5.0 (2 Platform
Standard Edition). Can you tell me what is the difference between the two if any?

Thanks,

Bill

Just use Sun Java. They are the original creators.

Bill,

You don't need to uninstall the MSJVM... go to Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced, then scroll to the 'Microsoft VM' section and uncheck any box that has a check, then in the 'Java (Sun)' section make sure the option(s) HAVE been checked.
