Java problem

Hey !
Is there an alternative program like java to download? I am having problems with java when I try to play games on the internet, or do anything when it involves java. I can't load any java applications when I have the new version of it, but when I installed the older version of java it kind of worked, but still is too slow, and freezes. Can you help me? thanks for any input

What browser are you using and what version of java do you currently have installed?

For instance pogo.com. Chess on that website requires java and it doesnt load it at all when I had a new version, but when I have an older version then it loads but freezes frequently and is very slow. I know that it is java causing the problems because same thing happens on different websites requiring it. I was thinking maybe it's windows that's causing the problem. Maybe I should make a repair install? Thanks for being interested Force.
