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

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.

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.

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" are: 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-((

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."

Better tread carefully here, after all Harry is a known expert
with Java, he does have 3386 versions of it in Add/Remove programs.

Hi, Heather,

I'm well, thank you. I had seen a couple of your posts that you were
traveling in Portugal. Was it not a good trip? Or are you referring to
some of the recent goings on in London and Glasgow?

I had something of the wanderlust this morning and was looking at photos
of Venice. I've been there twice, and for some reason I found myself
very much drawn to it today. Maybe I had a role in the Inquisition in a
past life. )

I hope you're well.

Cheers,
Tom

You said, referring to Harry......."It doesn't make sense". I rest my

Tom:

Uner "Download and Install", after clicking on the "Download" button, you'll
find a note saying "for AMD based Windows systems use version
'jre-1.5.0_11-amd64.exe'. My system happens to be AMD-based.
That should clear it up for you, Tom.
As for Heather and George,
I wonder who is drinking what and in how many "versions"?

Harry.

Harry,

That's for a 64 bit Windows system with an AMD processor. If your OS is
Windows ME, it's not 64 bit. And update 12
(jre-1_5_0_12-windows-amd64.exe) is available for 64 bit systems as well.

Here's the link (it's at the bottom of the page):

Unfortunately, the link I posted won't work. You can find it using the
download link I posted for Heather. Click "Download" for the JRE. It's
at the bottom of the page.

It may help to explain the reason there are 3386 versions of it in
Add/Remove programs. )
