What the hell kind of answer is that?

She wants to run Java games in Vista, not install drivers. (well I guess
Java could be considered a driver even though it's more like a runtime
library)

Christine,

Are you using IE7? If so, try Firefox or Safari (http://www.getfirefox.com
or http://safari.apple.com) Seems Java support is slightly better in those
browsers. There have been a lot of posts from casual web gamers here, mostly
people on Pogo. Java and Vista have had a lot of issues since launch and
they aren't all 100% fixed. If you can't find the answer here, go to Yahoo
and get support from their games division.
