Java 5.0 Update 6- Problem Installing ?
Hi, My name is Mark, Iam a new member to "FORUM"Iam having technical difficulties trying to download, and install Java 5.0 update 6...my computor is using IE-6 browser. early today the Java 5.0 downloaded... and was trying to add the files needed for the program, when I received the following error message: " We encountered an issue while trying to automatically install Java software onto your machine".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 Active X control: J2SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 1 from 'Sun Microsystems,Inc. .Click the yellow bar and choose "install Active X Control..." to allow installation to proceed.However "the Yellow bar image never appeared on the browser page; ?I have been told that my XP windows Firewall or spyware protection software, I have on my computer, is 'causing the issue. However I turned off the firewall and shut the spyware program off... I again tried to install Java 5.0 (Update-6) however when the files try to load-up... it stalls,so therefore (installation Fails etc.)I tried to troubleshoot the issue with the alternative method: downloading MS-Java X 86 from a another internet site, and tried to install and run it...received this error message: "Installation Failed" -not a valid win 32 application" ...I hope someone here in this forum has the correct information -or- how to fix or resolve this issue ?Thank's
Hi again, I donot actually download the intallation package, the entire program setup is at the Java download site: and is installed on ones computer right at the website:a window appears that says "Java (TM) SE Runtime Enviorment 6 update1 license and prompts me to either go with a typical setup or choose the custom setup.once I click Typical setup the process begins to install it loads some files and freezes up or stalls when it gets half way point(status)" Copy New Files" or near the end of it .When I know it has stalled completely. I close my IE-6 browser page and disconnect my Internet connection. A error message appears: as followsError 1606. could not access network location http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/Get file/1.6 0_01-6/windows-i586/ja 160000.cabAgain, I say this is a serious issue.... I hope someone has the knowledge or can direct me to a source ... who can help me get this resolved... Reguard's , Mark
Error 1606 is an Installshield error code (for details, refer link below):

Try offline download/install option from:
http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Note: It is a good idea to uninstall any traces of older JRE version(s) installed on the system.
To: All Members of the forum, and spardeep, I took your advice and was advised at the Java Website: to install the office version, this works very well indeed and it resolved my problem. I would advise anyone having the same problem...to download & install the Java 5.0 Update 6 -office version. Reguard's Seahorse24
