quite right... try to search for "java plugin" and your IE version in some
search engine
(or on java.sun.com), you might come up with an appropriate plugin that
allows you to
use newer VM's with the IE (due to the lost law suit, M$ only distributes
their out-of-date
VM with IE, even in XP...)
greets
ps: off topic: try the opera-browser instead, once you are used to
mouse-gestures you will
never use IE again ;o) www.opera.com -> free download
