Re: Java does not run applets
PROBLEM SOLVED! After following all the suggestions from Java and others, I thought I would try one last thing before giving up on using Java to open applets on broadbandreports.com. I uninstalled version j2re-1.4.2_06,
downloaded an old JAVA version j2re-1.3.1_15 and installed it.
IT WORKED RIGHT OFF THE BAT!......WITH NORTON AV AND ZONE ALARM ENABLED OR DISABLED.Nothing else was changed....
no settings etc. Is there a BUG in the latest Java version??
It would seem so. If you are having problems with the latest version of JAVA, before trying all the complicated FIXES? from JAVA, I would first try using the older version of the software. HOPE THIS INFORMATION WILL HELP SOMEONE.
Thanks for all the suggestions. HAPPY NEW YEAR. |

| No, there is no bug, at least none that would cause the problem you had. I'm glad you got it working but I would suggest that at some point you might try re-installing the 1.5 version.
One suggestion I would have, assuming you don't already do so, is disable the AV anytime you install software. An AV running in the background during a setup can really cause problems.
