download the appropriate java setup file and save it on HD. Physically disconnect your computer from the internet, that's right -  pull out Ethernet cable or disconnect wireless connection. Install java from setup file (note: no error message). Reboot (not sure if necessary but done anyway).  Reconnect internet and your java is working.

Hello;

Thanks for responding.

However,My java started working for some reason.

I don't know why.

I tested it on a java game site & a java test site.It said "fully enabled".

I think not closing the java control panel helps.

When it pops up minimize it or click the open page so it hides behind it.

Having 32 & 64 bit java is good.

In my Add ons window it says both are enabled.Apparently this causes no conflicts.
