The JVM has been standard in OS X for years though I'm guessing the version in 10.3.9 is probably dated. I just did a quick check on 10.4.10 and the version running is: Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-164) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_07-87, mixed mode, sharing) Do you have Java enabled in your browser? The only sites I've had problems with are the ones that assume/require IE. Also, any particular reason you're sticking with 10.4.5?

>>Time to head back to the Apple store to find out if Mac OS X 10.4 Rev 5 can handle run jdk and jre java applications. I guess the 10.3.9 platform doesn't even have any support. I can't figure out the circus between Apple and Sun Micro Java. There just shouldn't be any issues how a Safari Browser interacts with the Internet.<< Keith - Just for the record, the next version of OS X will be 10.5. Safari on Mac OS X has supported Java since the beginning. If for some reason Software Update doesn't automatically offer to install the latest version of Java for you, you can download it from the Apple web site. - Allen
