SC, i dont think its likely to stop pop ups !

How to reinstall java depends on what version you have, I dont use Xp but I think it comes preinstalled with MS java?

I use the SUN java runtime which can be removed in the normal way from add/remove programs and can be downloaded and installed from here

http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_automatic.jsp

NOTE THIS LINK WILL GO TO AN AUTO DOWNLOAD PAGE, CANCEL IT OF YOU DONT WANT SUN JAVA.....


EDIT, you can install SUn Java over the MS version, I think the sun version is the one to use.

I want pop-ups - Level 2 seems to act as a pop-up!

Will give it a go. Time for bed now!! Thanks.

Iain,/Seymour,

Are you still having problems with streaming on stockwatch?

Ian

Just on one (new) PC, not on my old one. It's a completely blank page, nothing at all, no header or anything.

Seymour,

Have you tried downloading the latest Java plugin as suggested on this thread?

Ian

Sorted now Ian.
Formatted my drive last night.Did fresh Install of XP PRO.When i tried to download updates i kept getting a Timeout message.Managed to remove that worm.Then i had a Worm 32 virus alert when i installed NAV.
How are they still on my computer after formatting?
Using genuine xp disk by the way

Downloaded new Java but still get blank. Have tried emailing medion about this but no reply yet.

Grrr. I'm sure it's something simple.

SC,i think i had something sim last year with Nortons 2003,have you tried putting MAM in the trusted zone,
sorry i have afresh install and lost my old emails,

steve

Steve/Scussy, will try that. Thanks, Rob.

Anyone on here using BlinkX ?

Apparently, this is the best thing since sliced Microsoft Windows. However, I wondered if it is resource hungry?

SC - Have a look

Spaceman - thanks for the reassurance - have ordered a new one and
just waiting for a more experienced pair of hands to be free to assist me in installing
the new one. Thanks again!

What are the correct steps to take to format and re-install with win xp pro.
Still having problems!
When ive done it before.Ive booted from Win xp disc and chosen quick format option

Iain,
i have just done a clean install for win XP pro,yes you do boot from disc but i did the clean install and not repair,
the problems i had was the keyboard F buttons did not work when agreeing to
license,and i was booting from floppy,i set the boot ok and in the end i used an old keyboard,NTFS was selected,
problem then,you loose all your DATA from hardrive,so a clean install is the last one to try,
ps.iam not a techy,
have looked at AVG antivirus

Iain, I dont use XP but you should get the option of reformatting the hard disk at the point you chose where to install XP.
