Java stopped working with IE 7. Tried reinstall without success.

Any suggestions?

TIA
Dean

No one knows what "stopped working" means. If you have a question about
Java, the people to ask are at Sun technical support. If you have a
question about Internet Explorer you're in the right place.

I have one website in particular that uses Java. When I try to use it with
IE7 it fails but works OK with Firefox. I have another computer where it
works Ok with both IE and Firefox. Seeing that Java appears to run Ok with
Firefox but not IE7 I suspect that some setting in IE7 has changed which
does not allow Java to run under IE7.

Last chance (for me, at least): What is the website in question and
exactly how does it 'fail'?

Hi,
1. Try clearing the Temporary Internet Files.
2. Clear the Java cache from Control Panel> Java> Temporary Internet Files
(they really shouldn't call them that)> Settings> Delete files.
3. Is a third-party security program blocking Java as active content,
scripting, etc?

Hope this helps,

The website
http://www.jigzone.com/puzzles/2008-03-21-0B2502D9C0B0

I get the following message instead of the puzzle that is supposed to load:

"Oops,the puzzle has failed to start in a reasonable time.
This could happen if your are no longer connected to the internet or your
computer has problems displaying Java applets"

I have checked the Java settings in IE7 and go to Java.com and installed the
latest java to no avail. On this system Java downloads the puzzle ok with
Firefox.
On 2 other systems using XP both Firefox and IE7 work correctly.

Did that. Solution Java won't work with IE7. When I go to Java.com and check
the install I don't get confirmation it is installed with IE7. But works
fine with Firefox.

I tried reinstalling Java and get the following message:

"If you encounter an error, check the top of the browser (see image above)
for a yellow bar that reads "This site might require the following ActiveX
control: J2SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 5 from 'Sun Microsystems, Inc.'.
Click here to install..." Click the yellow bar and choose "Install ActiveX
Control..." to allow installation to proceed."

It shows a yellow bar which is not appearing on my browser.

Hi,
Try...
Internet Options> Security> Internet Zone> Default level. See if that makes
the Information Bar appear at appropriate times.

So far I have found nothing wrong but Java still won't operate with IE7.
Guess I'll have to just use Firefox.

Thanks for your help

Dean...I've been through the exact same thing with Java and IE7 and my
questions brought me the same responses that you've received. I'm sure there
are many out there whove had the same problem since I don't believe that you
and I are the only aliens!!!

I now use FireFox. :")
