PRB: Warnings When Installing VM Build 2339 Over 2334

Last reviewed: January 29, 1998
Article ID: Q178646
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Win32 Virtual Machine for Java
  • SDK for Java, version 2.01

SYMPTOMS

Several of the dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) included in the standalone version of the 4.79.2334 Virtual Machine for Java have been replaced with older versions in the 4.79.2339 Virtual Machine for Java from the SDK for Java 2.01.

CAUSE

Older versions of certain DLLs were shipped intentionally to address a problem that causes portions of the text on security certificates to be missing or unreadable on Internet Explorer 3.02. The DLLs are listed in the MORE INFORMATION section of this article.

RESOLUTION

If you have Internet Explorer 3.02 installed, it is recommended you answer "YES" and replace the newer DLLs with the older ones. If you have Internet Explorer 4.x, you should not see these warnings.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

The problem described in the CAUSE section of this article is present only on machines that have versions of Internet Explorer before Internet Explorer 4.0.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Install Internet Explorer 3.x.

  2. Install Virtual Machine for Java build 4.79.2334.

  3. Install Virtual Machine for Java build 4.79.2339.
