Horrendous problems on all versions of Windows? Now that is very, very
odd. By the way, there are something like 25 versions of Windows since
Windows 95.

Anyway, I have 1.4.1_01 on Windows ME right now. A couple of weeks ago I
installed Java something more recent on Windows XP. I've installed it in
the past on NT. The download count for Sun Java Windows installations is
well over 10 million systems at least. It should be pretty easy by now!

I'd suggest you go to the Java forums http://forums.java.sun.com/ and
ask on the New-To-Java forum. The JSP forum is not the best place to
ask this basic installation question.

When you get it all working, you might want to ditch the JSP mess and
take a look at our JOT Servlets product instead :-)
