Hi SuperDave! Am I getting on your nerves yet? This thing sure is getting on mine! Thank you again for being so patient and kind in helping me with my computer issues.
Not at all. I'm enjoying myself. As you can see from the log, Java 23 was installed. Now let's try to run the ESET scan outlined in Reply # 18

      Hi Gina. Sorry for being so late in getting back to you. Yes, we did the proxy thing but I thought it would be good to check it again. Could you please download and install FireFox here and see if you're still having problems?

        Please don't apologize SuperDave! I know this isn't your job...if it was then I might be a tad upset but it's all good. Thanx for all you have done and continue to help me with!!

        I installed Firefox but it can't even connect to the net. I'm lost!?

        Ok. Let's try to see if the signal is going through.

        Please run Notepad (start > All Programs > Accessories >
        Notepad) and copy and paste the text in the code box into a new file:

        Code: [Select]
        @echo off
        >Log1.txt (
        ipconfig /all
        nslookup google.com
        nslookup yahoo.com
        ping -n 2 google.com
        ping -n 2 yahoo.com
        route print
        )
        start Log1.txt
        del %0

        •Go to the File menu at the top of the Notepad and select Save as.

        •Select save in: desktop

        •Fill in File name: test.bat

        •Save as type: All file types (*.*)

        •Click save.

        •Close the Notepad.

        •Locate and double-click test.bat on the desktop.

        •A notepad opens, copy and paste the content it (log1.txt) to your reply.

            Thanx SuperDave for your inspiration! I'm not giving up...It's a vendetta now,lol.

            I reset IE but still getting the error on the Java site when I tested my version.

            Thanx!

              What kind of error on the java site?

              It doesn't tell me the error. It says "Error: click for details " but when I click it it just takes me to the page with the most common errors.

              I really feel like if we could figure out what the "internet connection settings" are preventing me from dowloading/instaling the online version we would have this thing licked!

              But I have checked everything. I have even tried installing it without running the add-ons in IE. I made the internet settings to mirror my other computer that runs Java without a hitch and that didn't work. I also tried using a hard connection to the internet and that didn't work. I'm out of ideas.

              I bet it's some button somewhere thats ticked that shouldn't be ...or vice versa...I just don't know which one. lol

              Thanx for your assistance Super Dave!

              We have already download and installed the latest version of java. Why are you going back to their website?

                Because it tells you to do that to "test your installation" . I also went to a web page that I knows uses appletts and it didn't work.
