Re: Install Java?

I'm moving this to Troubleshooting.  And markyiscool, any information you can give us about your PC and browser could be helpful in tracking this down.

Look for a Help button and there should be an About under that.  It may be hidding of to the right of the screen, you may have to click on some arrows to see all the options on your toolbar.

Well, that is certainly interesting!  Can you think of anything that might have happened to make it stop working?  Have you tried reinstalling Java?

Re: Install Java?

Maybe you just need to Enable Java.  I believe that is on the Tools/Options/Content tab on Firefox in case you happen to be using Firefox.

If you need to enable java on internet explorer, go to tools/internet options/programs/manage addons,

Re: Install Java?

Oh, and if you are using the browser that came with the computer, it is most likely internet explorer (the icon that is a lowercase E with a yellowish ring)
