Java installation in Windows is easy and only requires that you
download and run the setup. Most users will probably want to use the
Java Runtime Standard Edition.

[Windows]

The Java Runtime environment for Windows is available from
http:\\java.sun.com

Java installation in Windows is relatively easy, and only requires
two steps:

Firstly, download and run the setup. Most users will probably want to
use the Java Runtime Standard Edition. Please note that you require
the INTERNATIONAL version of the Java Runtime, not the English one,
since Sun regard certain Windows Codepages as "foreign." (These
codepages
will be included in a future version of JReceiver to support the English
Runtime, but for the time being, pick the International one.)

Secondly, set a System environment variable "JAVA_HOME". To set
an
environment variable in Windows 2000, choose Start/Control
Panel/System, and select the "Advanced" tab, then
"Environment
variables". Finally, click New  beneath the "system
variables" box.
(Don't set it as a user variable in the top box.)

The name of the variable is JAVA_HOME. The value of the variable is
the installationg directory you chose above.
