Java & Browsers

Everytime I access a site with Java in either Firefox or IE7 they freeze (not responding and Hangapp shows up). I have removed Java and reinstalled and did the same with Firefox, but still the same thing. I have run an Adaware scan and my virus software is up to date and scanning on a regular basis. I have no pop-blockers running either.

I am running XP home with Java Version 6 Update 1 and have no clue why this is an issue - any ideas?

QTJAVA=C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\lib\ext\QTJava.zipI noticed this in the set list you asked for - what or where do I change that info?

1 - remove QTJava.zip from the your JRE ext lib (C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\lib\ext\)

2- remove the QTJAVA system variable (remove it also from your CLASSPATH variable)

3- retry accessing browser using java

NB: You can edit your system/user variables as follows:

Start-> Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment Variables...

BTW, this is a quick time library which has been a source of problems to java dev. and users.

Hope That Helps

I removed:

QTJava.zip

QTJava from the sys vars and removed the CLASSPATH listing as well

Any other ideas?
