on a few websites, like games at Yahoo, they say i need to enable javascript to play. I have downloaded the latest version and have it enabled from the options tool and use it on many other websites. So what do I do to get Yahoo to see that it is enabled?

Java, or javascript? They are two very different things.Javascript is enabled or disabled within your web browser settings.Java runtime environment is something you need to download and install on your computer.

No, you don't need Java runtime at all to run javascript. What web browser are you using?

In firefox:Preferences > Content > Enable JavascriptIf that's not working, perhaps your anti-virus software is set to an ultra-high setting that is blocking scripts on all your browsers.
