    Unable to install JAVA runtime
    Hi,

    I have tried endless # of times but whenever I try to download/install Java, the installation thing starts and then almost within 20 seconds I get a dialog box with the following text:

    This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists
    and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.

    Can you please help me out on this.

    Thanks.

    What brower are you using, for instance Safari [from Apple] will not load Java.
    Also check your Internet options there is a place for Java there, make sure you have that set to Enable
