I have the latest version of Java, yet it doesn't seem to be enabled when going to websites like youtube, pogo.com, espn.com, etc. This means that videos don't show up on youtube, I can't play games on pogo.com, and drop down menus don't work on espn.com. This happens on all websites and i just noticed that even google images doesn't work because no pictures come up. What I first did was check and see if I had the latest Java version on their website; I didn't, so i updated. I restarted my browser and everything started working as it was supposed to(youtube vids came up, etc.). I restarted my computer and encountered the problem again, in which java wasn't being enabled when browsing websites. I checked internet options to see if i could manually enable java, yet it seemed to already be enabled in internet options. The last thing I tried was to reinstall java, yet that too did not fix the problem. I'm currently using windows vista. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me with this. Thanks.
One more thing - I just tried to open mcafee security center so I could update it, but I couldnt open it...I double clicked on it and the loading screen came on, but it just lagged there. Maybe this is a totally different problem?
Edit: I searched google and this seems to be a javascript problem. One solution was downloading the latest scripting host, yet this was for windows xp and not vista. I just finished activating vbscript through the command prompt too. I was also reading something about disabling UAC but dont know if that relates.
Please help!
