If you can boot to the Desktop & open IE use Tools > Internet Options , Advanced tab & scroll to "Multimedia" , if JAVA is loaded it will show Java (Sun) or Microsoft VM above "Multimedia".
New Computers aren't supplied with Microsoft VM Java anymore my AU machine was supplied with Sun JAVA but some aren't.
You can also check IE JAVA by using site http://javatester.org/version.html if IE JAVA is loaded it will connect & display the version in pink box , if not loaded it won't connect.
You can get FREE SUN JAVA file about 14.5 MB manual download or use Auto download "Get it here" link.

You can also get FREE Microsoft VM JAVA from

Well I have figured it out, now just not sure if I corrected it the right way
.
I have AdAware, and had done a scan the other day. I guess when it found "Web savings from Ebates" it deleted it and all of it's files. When I go into "msconfig" under the startup tab, there is a startup item, trying to launch, which of course the file is now missing:
javaw -cp "c:\programfiles\websavingsfromebates\system\code"Main lp: "C:\programfiles\websavingsfromebates"
location:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
I tried unselecting the file, but after rebooting it came up that you have changed the way the system starts from normal startup to selective startup. So I did the next best thing, I found it in the registry, backed it up, (to be safe) and then deleted it. Everything is fine now.
Thanks for everyones help !
