    Java not installed on a Win2K machine?

    Hmm, this would normally be a problem with those silly XP users but I've just discovered how Java is not installed on my system. Any and all Java applets just have a big box with a little image icon in the top left.

    You guys have any ideas what I should download to fill this component in? There's two Java plugins I think, one's by Sun and one is by MS. Which one should I get?
    I'm bringing geeky back...

    You can either get the windows 2k update (windowsupdate.microsoft.com)

    or

    get msjavx86.exe from here:

    Sun's is higher quality, and faster, plus it supports more of Java.

    Unfortunately, some idiotic developers have used MS-only features because they don't know how to do it properly.
