    Default Chat downloads

    In order to use our chat room you must have Java Runtime Environment installed on your computer. You probably already have it on your system since it has so many uses. But in case you don't, you can download it by clicking on the following link.


    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html

    J2Se v 1.4.2.07 JRE is the one you want to download (or the latest version)

    See you in Chat!

    Rob, I admittedly am NOT a technical genius. I just spent about an hour trying to register, find JRE, find out if I have enough diskspace, and download it. "My Computer" shows that I do have it, but when I click on CHAT, it still shows me that I need to have a Java compatible browser, or whatever. HELP! I feel like so computer illiterate!

    I am running Microsoft XP with Internet Explorer version 6.0 if that helps at all! Thanx!

    First, look up at your main toolbar, open tools, then IE options, click the Advanced tab and make sure the Use Java box is selected. It's just before the Multimedia box.

    Maxi, here is a different link that Rob gave me earlier. It's the one I used and Java installed without a hitch. I, too, run XP & 6.0.

    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html

    Look for the J2SE v1.42_05 JRE download

    Then, click the button that says Download J2SE JRE

    Thanks again, Rob, for all your help!

    My Advanced tab does not mention Java anywhere in it. I re-downloaded, and it said I already had it, so I just said okay to replace it. Our chat site just says I need a Java comapatible browser. I guess mine's not! Thanks anyway!

    I ended up doing a search on Yahoo for Java Runtime Environment. I clicked on a search result from Microsoft and went thru them to get my Java RE downloaded. That link above didn't work for me and I didn't have that Use Java Box in my Advanced tab until AFTER I downloaded JRE through Microsoft. This was a pain for me, since I am so unsavvy with computers, but it's worth the effort to be able to chat!

    I tested the link just a few days ago and it was still working at that time.
