java problems

[kuby123]

I had java runtime environment (jre) on my pc and found out it was damaged. So, I uninstalled it and went to java/sun micro site to download a new version and at download page I get message "unable to download due to
unknown reasons". Do I really need jre? and if so, how do I get it? thanks....

Java is so you can run Java applets on the internet. If you don't ever run Java programs, then you don't need it.

You can run java applets with the java virtual machine... check google and find differant sites who have the download link...

Make sure you go to the " J2SE v 1.4.2_05 JRE" link, accept the license agreement and download the "windows installation".
