Javascript hyperlinks do not work

I uninstalled several updates of J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 but left UPdate 11 installed via Add/Remove Programs for WinXP in an effort to free up some hard disk space. After doing so, javascript hyperlinks in my browsers do not work and some webpages are not loading correctly. When I go to the Java download page to download the latest version of Java, I get this message:

"You have the recommended Java installed (Version 6 Update 1)" which means it will not let me re-install. Does someone know what I need to do? Thank you.

Java != JavaScriptThey have similar names, and somewhat similar semantics, but thats all. Find a JavaScript forum, and you have uninstalled/installed/reinstalled your java environment for no reason, due to a misinterpretation of two names which are not the same.
