Help - How do I enable Java Script in IE 6? All the books
show options in the 'Advanced' Tab or the 'Security'
Section - but my IE6 options and security tabs and lists
don't have a Java option - any suggestions??

Thanks

Microsoft got sued by sun corp. over who owns the rights to java. As a
result, Microsoft were not allowed to distribute java with windows xp.
To get the java virtual machine, you would have to install SP1, however they
got to that aswell and now microsoft has SP1a which does not include java.
(At least thats what a local computing mag said)

The alternative is to download Sun's java machine. go to
http://java.sun.com/getjava/ and download it from there.

had sun and microsft vm installed. i tried to update to
the new java because mine says its damaged but the
damaged one works better than the update.
