Thanks.

Both 32 & 64 bit java installations are working fine.

Thank you caddyroger!

I just got it and noticed a few things.

1. The installer prechecks the option to install the Yahoo Toolbar.
2. Automatic updates have been enabled even though previously disabled.
3. I now have two versions of the Java Deployment Toolkit plugin installed in Firefox.
4. The Java Quickstarter extension (ver 1.0) was installed in Firefox without my permission.

Edit:

Disable or change automatic updates via Control Panel | Java | Update.

To remove the Java Quickstart extension, go to the Java Control Panel, Advanced Tab | Miscelleneous and uncheck Java Quick Starter. Restart Firefox.

If you have multiple versions of Java Deployment Toolkit, go to about:plugins and check the paths for the Toolkit. The new version places the plugin (npdeploytk.dll) directly into

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins

Older versions of the plugin may be found in:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\new_plugin

Rename or delete the older version plugin and restart Firefox.

Well, you are a mod and jmorlan ain't :)

I didn't see the Yahoo toolbar option either but when I opened Firefox I saw that "New add-ons have been installed". And, as jmorlan says, I don't like add-ons being installed without my permission.

All set here.

I wanted the whole ball of wax.
Now happily running the Yahoo Toolbar, the plugins, the startup items...heck, it even installed a new kitchen sink for me!

lol...just kidding. :D
Thanks again. ;)
