Java 6 Beta 2

I don't know if this has been posted, but this beta 2 of JRE 6
seems to work rather well- at least for me- YMMV.

Only problem I've experienced was on install. When
the install got to the end, the progress bar indicated
it was done but the window did not close. I waited a few
minutes and then just closed it through task manager- hitting
the X wouldn't close it. Went to control panel and the java icon
was there, clicked it and all looked good. Went to dslreports.com
and ran their tweak test and speed test, the JVM worked good
and without AERO shutting down in the IE window.

Sorry for cross posting this to several newsgroups but I know
many people have been bothered by this.

Take care,

Michael

Uninstall any prior version of Java.

The old ms Java works fine. Its msjavx86.exe install that and then upgrade
to 3810..
