And I will stick with version 5.....11. Does the job. Don't like the
version 6 ones. (looking over my shoulder to see if Lipman catches my
statements, lol).

Hi, Heather,

If you're going to stay with JRE 1.5.0, it's probably best to use
1.5.0_12. IIRC there were a number of security vulnerabilites fixed in
this release.

Cheers,

For AMD based windows systems they recommend to use 1.5.0_11, TomV.
I already have that version installed and will keep it, accordingly.

Who are "they"?

I have an AMD processor (XP 2200, XP 3000+ and AMD2 4600) on three
computers and all three have the latest Java RE 6, Update 2 with no
problems whatsoever. Two are running XP Pro in English and the dual core
is running XP Home in Spanish.

"They" a www.java.com.
Just look under :"instructions" for download and installation.
Thought you might summarize that, Alias.

Thanks, my dear......what would I do without you re Java and Firefox,
lol. I have now downloaded it and will install it later.

Hope all is well with you. Just got back from (horrors!!) Europe.
Portugal to be exact. Didn't meet up with any loudmouths like Norman M.
though......unfortunately it is his type that travels usually and gives
the nice guys like you a bad name. 8-((

Cheers....Heather

Damned if I can find these people.......the "theys" he refers to. I
checked under Download and Installation and no Theys there.

You into the cooking sherry again, Harry??

Harry,

I don't know what you're referring to on the page. Perhaps you could
"summarize that." Why would Sun recommend a version with security
vulnerabilities for AMD processor based systems? It doesn't make sense.

From the page you referenced:

"Intel and 100% compatible processors are supported."

Tom
