Got problem with JAVA on XP plz help.


Recommended Posts

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.

Installed XP and now when the window pop ip in some web-site thet telling me thet i need to download JAVA then i geting this error

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?

    • Hello, My thoughts on this are mixed. Microsoft has hosted malicious code in the Microsoft Update Catalog where third party device drivers are stored; I wrote about one such incident about fifteen years ago, so if there are any other old malicious drivers floating around in the catalog, this will be a good step towards preventing any infestations from reoccurring. Another thing, which surprisingly is not mentioned in Microsoft's announcement, is that this helps protect against BYOVD (Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver) attacks, where malware either comes with or downloads an older device drivers with vulnerabilities in it that can be exploited to gain access to kernel memory. Removing all those old device drivers from the Windows Update Catalog, potentially with all sorts of undisclosed vulnerabilities in them, means an attacker can no longer leisurely count on being able to download them from Microsoft's servers--something that may go unnoticed or ignored by security analysts. This makes the adversary attack a little more noisy, since they have to either include the device driver with the rest of their initial payload or download it from a third-party site at some point prior to beginning their BYOVD attack. On the other hand, it means that people who are looking for a specific version of an older device driver for whatever legitimate reasons, like compatibility, performance or stability, may end up going to dodgy third-party sites in search of older drivers, which increases the risk of exposure to everything from nuisance advertisements and unwanted software to actual malicious code. As for me, I have keeping copies of all the device drivers, firmware updates, etc. I have downloaded over the years, some dating back to DOS and Windows 3.x era, not just for hardware I won, but popular things like unified chipset and video card drivers, just in case I ever needed it. It might seem silly to collect such a thing, but the hardware drivers, firmware updates, and documentation are just about 2 TB in size. From my perspective, it is an inexpensive form of insurance, especially given that disk space is always getting cheaper over time. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

    • Lol tf you are talking about. People are PAYING by using this app exclusively, just indirectly. Do you have any idea how much facebook charges for api access to WhatsApp which has become more or less a monopoly in e-commerce.
    • My kid tried, so I took her to Microcenter and showed her the differences in price as well as storage and specs. We bought a Windows machine. She loves it, and is off to college this fall with her gaming level windows laptop at the price of a Mac that came with a 512GB SSD, and half the RAM.
