Well D

You could be right but it still would not hurt to do a defrag, you may not realise this but to diagnose any computer problem you have to go through a process of elimination.

So when Z suggested another version Java his point was that some LW users found the latest version of Java to cause problems while Java V1.5.11, which I use, worked as expected.

Also, you said:I just like to make a point here, when you haved used the number of apps as I have, over the years as I have, there is one thing you learn. The latest release of an app is not necessarily the best or the most stable because companies tend to release apps to a schedule rather than when they are ready.

That is why, you will find, the lastest realease (of any app) to be buggy and unstable. Most professional users tend to wait until two or three updates are realeased before they buy any type of new software.

So, at a guess, it is unlikely that the latest release of Java would have undergone the same number of tests on Vista as it would have on XP.

Just something to think about.
