The new installer won't do it for you (thanks for the crappy programming, Sun!). http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!"

In the Add/Remove programs I see that I have Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_03 (Size 136MB) and J2SE Runtime Environment, 5.0 Update 6 (Size 152MB) (I also have installed J2SE Development Kit 5.0 Update 6) What should I remove before installing 1.5.0_7? |
