When you connect to a Web page that uses Java controls, you may not be able to view or use Java programs. You may also see various script error messages.
This behavior can occur if the Java controls in Internet Explorer are damaged.
To resolve this issue, determine if any Java control is damaged. Remove any Java control that is damaged, extract the control from the cabinet (.cab) file that contain the control, and then register the control. The following Java controls are listed in the Windows\Downloaded Program Files folder:
a. Click Start, point to Programs, and then click Windows Explorer.
b. Open the <windows>\Downloaded Program Files folder, where <windows>
is the name of your Windows folder.
c. On the View menu, click Details.
For each of the files listed above, note any files that have a Damaged
status. If any file has a Damaged status, continue with step 2.
If no file is listed as damaged, perform other Java troubleshooting
steps. For information about troubleshooting Java problems, see the
following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

a. Click Start, point to Programs, and then click MS-DOS Prompt.
b. If you installed Internet Explorer from CD-ROM, place your Internet
Explorer CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive, and then type each of the
following lines, pressing ENTER after each line
<x>:
md\javatemp
<z>:
cd\win95\eng\packages
copy <somejava>.cab <x:>\javatemp
where <x> is the hard disk on which you want to place temporary
files, <somejava>.cab is the .cab file that contains the Java
control file, and <z> is the drive letter for your CD-ROM drive.
See the list of corresponding .cab files for Java controls at the
end of step 3.
c. If you downloaded Internet Explorer from the Web, type each of the
following lines, pressing ENTER after each line
<v>:
cd\<ietemp>
copy <somejava>.cab <z>:\javatemp
where <v> is the source drive for the Internet Explorer Setup files,
<somejava>.cab is the .cab file that contains the Java control file,
and <z> is the hard disk on which you want to place temporary files.
Note that if you chose to remove the Internet Explorer 4.0 Setup files,
you are unable to complete step B or C until you download these files
from the following Microsoft Web site:

a. Click Start, point to Programs, and then click MS-DOS Prompt.
b. Type each of the following lines, pressing ENTER after each line
<x>:
cd javatemp

c. The Internet Explorer Classes for Java control is not contained in a
.cab file, so you can simply copy it to the Windows\System folder.
Type each of the following lines, pressing ENTER after each line
<drive>:
cd\<windows>\system
attrib -r iejava.cab
ren iejava.cab iejava.old
<z>:
cd\<sourcedir>
copy iejava.cab <drive>:\<windows>\system
where <drive> is the drive letter of the hard disk containing your
Windows folder, <windows> is the Windows folder, <z> is the drive
letter for the hard disk or CD-ROM containing the Iejava.cab file,
and <sourcedir> is the source folder for the Iejava.cab file.
For example, if you installed Internet Explorer from the Internet
Explorer CD-ROM, your CD-ROM drive is drive E, and Windows is installed
on drive C, type each of the following lines, pressing ENTER after each
line:
c:
cd\windows\system
attrib -r iejava.cab
