for Java Software: |
Before a Java Web Start program can be used on a computer, the supporting software must be installed. This is needed only 1 time per computer no matter how many different applications use it. Sun Microsystems Inc provides this package free of charge at http://java.sun.com/products/j2se or it can be downloaded here. If this is the first time you are using it, just download the file from the site above. Follow the instructions given there for installations. I recommend that you accept the default values proposed in the install process. |
