Uninstall all java versions you have installed in my programs.(control panel)

Then head to java.com: Java + You and download the latest version, then install it.

Try this goodluck,

Malcom

Do as Malcolm recommends, but use this link to download the off line version of Sun's Java jre-6u16 as this is the latest version...

hdlc,

Try this:


Please download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder
  • Run JavaRa.exe, pick the language of your choice and click Select. Then click Remove Older Versions.
  • Accept any prompts.
  • Open JavaRa.exe again and select Search For Updates.
  • Select Update Using Sun Java's Website then click Search and click on the Open Webpage button. Download and install the latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version for your computer.

If all of the above STILL don't work, try the Java Offline Installer.
