    My computer won't let me download java
    I have recently bought a computer but it does not have java on it, when I go to try and download java on any browser I mean I have IE, Google chrome, flock, mozilla, it comes up with a warning message saying it can't be done, going to a website page saying page cannot be found, I have tried downloading it on to a usb stick and putting it on the computer but again its not working

    Any ideas people because so many sites I like need java and its really annoying me, I will try anything!

    Thanks

    Suggestions:
    • Uninstall all JAVA versions from the Control Panel first.
    • Verify you are downloading the correct installer for your operating system.
    • Download the full offline installer instead of the smaller online installer. You want the Java runtime environment (JRE) package - Java SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 16.
    • Verify you have adequate free disk space. Sun's FAQ recommends 2-3 times the size of the installer.


    Additional specific details about your issue may yield less general responses.

    Go to internet options and click on allow Java.
    I have had to do that before.
    NOT a computer expert.

    Did you restart your computer after you un installed.
    If not ,I would do that first.
