Sound like Java is broken. Go to the Sun Java Download page. Go to Download J2SE v 1.4.2_03 and click on the download link under JRE. After saying "accept" to the license agreement, Click on the "continue" button. I recommend the Windows Offline Installation version. I think installing the Sun Java JRE will fix things.

Make sure that you uninstall any other versions of java that are installed first.

It can be directly inferred from the original post that there are no "other versions of java" to uninstall, as Windows comes with the MS JVM, which can be disabled, but not uninstalled. It doesn't hurt to check, but don't be surprised if you find nothing.

I stand corrected. Should have put *may be* installed.
But then again, how long have javascript & java been related??
I use hotmail & access it with my Opera browser with Java disabled & everything works fine. :cheesy:
