I downloaded the java and installed it before and it does not work.
Attached is picture of the area that is in java. There is suppose to be a list of folders set up as a tree. When I right click on it I get a window with 'about' or 'open java console'.
Any ideas what to do now?

I would Completely remove java, then go to that site, install the ActiveX control and it loads the installer and installs Java.

I totally unstalled java.
Went to the site.
Hit install and it opend and installed. There was no activx controll openning up.
The java does not work.
I checked managed addons and allso 32 bit activx and the java is all enabled.
Any othe ideas?

Go to http://java.com/
click on the "free java download". This will walk you through the install. Just to the right of this button is one for "Do I have Java?". This will verify your java installation.

I downloaded msjavx86 (an older vertion) and it worked. The fonts were a bit off but at least you can work.
Thanx
