MS Virtual Machine -

http://ftp.anadolu.edu.tr/pub/Win9x/MS%20V...va/msjavx86.exe

This is the last one before they took it offline.

(UPDATE) - Direct from the MS Knowlege Base - MS Virtual Machine

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?.../vm/dl_vm40.htm

Easier though is to get the plugin direct from SUN it runs smoother, and integrates with mozilla and other apps that need Java.

Sun XP Java Plugin -

http://dlres.java.sun.com/PluginBrowserChe...ava/others.html

Can these two ever decide to play nice.

the weird thing was is that i swear i had this installed, but when i was reinstalling openoffice today, it said no java found on the machine. so i just dl'ed the latest beta from java.sun.com and it fixed everythign up perfectly.

True..

But, come on, think the super giant of M$ could let someone else run apps well without messing over it's own people also. Keeps you dependant on them.

If you really want M$ VM 3805 (java) - just grab the secuity update dated march 4th - some security fix for VM. It contains the full version of VM.

You have to grab it from the cat though - not just a scan on winupdate.

This update was still avail as of a few days ago - I would suggest you grab and put the msjavx86.exe somewhere safe - for later use :)

It's slower ......

Most webpages are designed with I.E and Virtual Machine in mind and gives errors when used with SUN's Java only.

This isn't really SUN's fault but just the way things are.

SUN Microsystems won a courtcase against Microsoft, so they cant give you Java anymore, if you need it , go to Sun's homepage

it does not even show up on windows update for me so my only solution is Sun

i assume sun's version is to the letter, and that is why it "sucks" where as ms's is crippled, and mildly propertiry.

i would also assume that if i was sun, and i won the case, then i would make DANG sure that new users would have a great exerience with java. know what i mean?

      I don't get why you care how thin your phone is. Most people slap a giant case on it anyway, so it doesn't mean much in the long run.

      Yay it finally made it to openSUSE Tumbleweed. Installed on the rest of my PCs/laptops and also working just fine. Was also available before for KDE Neon and Fedora. And I hear Arch also already has it.
    • Windows 11 blocks Google Chrome due to a Microsoft safety feature, fix out

      By MulletMan69 · Posted

      Yeah basically family safety is tied to your sons acc and your be the manager of it right and can see what they view and can control it. However open edge and you can actually signin to another account while on the windows account you are monitoring and bypass the restrictions. It was different to this on Windows 7 all the stuff was local not in cloud, so didn't matter if you signed out the browser. Chrome can usually still be installed even when blocked, my son used to use other acc in browser and download chrome and then use that freely and install apps and stuff as webapps. None of the tracking stuff would work. I originally ended up blocking downloads via group policy, microsoft store, winget, and loads of other stuff via group policy. But yeah as i said he just got to the point he reset the pc. I stopped that with bios password but he yanked the cmos battery (restores bios and removes password) and reinstalled windows. Other than physically locking the case away and watching him like a hawk its gameover now. It was kinda self inflicted, i did teach my son some cybersecurity stuff and i used to encourage him to try get past my blocking (so he learnt some skills for the future), he can actually lockpick interesting how you bring that up lol (another thing i got him into) I agree with the parenting thing locking stuff down is not the only solution.
