Help - Where To Get MS Virtual Machine

I setup a new computer for my wife this evening. I loaded XP pro on it and used windows update to get all the latest fixes. I thought it was all ready to go. My wife went to the msn site and tried to play a game she likes called Mah Jong Tiles. She clicked to start the game and a box popped up saying a download was needed to run the game. So she clicked on download and this went to a MS site and it said Microsoft Virtual Machine auto download no longer supported for XP - visit Windows Update to look for any VM updates for your system. So I went to windows update again and there are no updates listed. So where the heck does one get this update? Everything runs fine on my win2k pro system. My wife is driving me crazy now - help!!

You can get the Java plug-in for Windows XP, Me, NT, 2000, 98, or 95 from Sun here...

Thanks that fixed it. I guess it's no surprise MS is making it hard to get Java working under windows now.

They stopped the automatic download of the java machine because of some scam or **** like that. But you can download M$ Java from the microsoft download site, http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/
