You'll need to post your system details: System details - help us to help you

Here's some suggestions to try.

If your running McaFee, the fix for most is to uninstall McAfee and run another program. Avast is a good one. Some people have been able to get it to work without uninstalling McAfee.

Some examples:

Also d/load and install Java 6, the one called (Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u1) using the offline installer http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
