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?
# 4
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

Thanks for that information - I followed the steps and still having the same issue. Both Firefox and IE freeeze whenever I come to a page with Java app on it.
I removed:
QTJava.zip
QTJava from the sys vars and removed the CLASSPATH listing as well
restarted - still hangapps
Any other ideas?
here is the set list again:
