Choose the Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language (http://192.18.97.149/ECom/EComTicketServlet/BEGIN05B42F7D17BB5D1DCC8BF8F136E50CAD/-2147483648/623311515/1/538046/537974/623311515/2ts+/westCoastFSEND/j2re-1.4.2_06-oth-JPR/j2re-1.4.2_06-oth-JPR:2/j2re-1_4_2_06-windows-i586-p.exe)

Save it on you computer, run it. I suggest installing all options...

why offline installation?

most java chat rooms can be accessed via IRC with mIRC (http://www.mirc.com/) (if you know the server and roomname)

why offline installation?

Backup. I save all my programs, and burn them monthly, incase shit ever hits the fan.

MS java is no longer being supported by anyone, including MS. You should use sun java.

what would happen if i use MS java? the reason i like MS java is because i have trouble chatting if i use sun java, but i don't know to explain the problem.
