Number 2 and 3 are the same. So, 2 or 3. You should still install the Java
Runtime - assuming you want to use Java - but I doubt if the old version that runs in 9x is included and you should get it seperately (which is better anyway), so the extra size of 1 is probably just a waste of time and disk space (on 9x). A Release Candidate - i.e. 4 - is very rarely 'most suitable' except by pure luck and you should only go for that if you enjoy beta testing.

No problem.
And incidentally, though perhaps you already know, but I installed OO 2.4.1 (being the version I had archived) in 98SE tonight and it included JRE-6u4. Knowing that it is now on 6u7, I ran the Control Panel Updater. It offered update 7, so I accepted. But the installation wouldn't complete. So I plugged in my thumb drive (with priority software on), which had update 7 on, and ran it from this already downloaded and verified copy and it too failed at the same point. So I guess JRE-6u7 doesn't install on 9x - but it'd be nice if the installer said so at the beginning! Seeing as how old version of JRE are full of security vulnerabilities, personally I don't think using Java is wise in 9x anymore. Shane AAH wrote: Shane Thank you very much for advice.

See if running without Java works for you, if it does there's no need to
download it I never had it on my WinME machine or my XP and if I came across anywhere that wanted it usually it was not important enough to make me want to install it, it's up to you though what you decide to do. If you do decide to have Java make sure you get the latest version for your OS from the official site. -- Joan Archer http://www.freewebs.com/crossstitcher http://lachsoft.com/photogallery "AAH" wrote in message ...
