MSN Hotmail does not have any Java functions. ITYM JavaScript, which is not
the same thing as Java at all. JavaScript is a Netscape invention, while
Java was developed by Sun Microsystems. JavaScript is a browser scripting
language, while Java is a cross-platform programming language; I.e., you can
write applications with Java that don't require a browser to be open.
JavaScript depends on an open browser to function.
As for your access problems, search the
"microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser" group. There are usually
several responses to similar problems; typically suggesting checking your
system clock, clearing cache and temporary files; that sort of thing.
And your odds of hearing from an "official affiliate" are pretty slim. These
groups are not "staffed", as it were, they are a peer-to-peer self-help
forum. I am just another "peer", which is to say, a user of Microsoft
products who is otherwise not connected with MSFT. A lot of the posters here
are like that.
