Javascript problem

Originally our PC's were running v2.03. A while back, we ran MS windows update to load new security patches. Since that time, about 15 out of 30 PC's are unable to load web pages with javascript, using either PB or IE6. If we install Sun Java, then IE6 is able to load javascript web pages, but not PB. Upgraded to PB 2.05 today, but the problem is still there. If we test javascript, at the javatester.org site for instance, we pass using IE6, but not using PB. Thanks for any insights, this is driving us nuts.

MS was sued by Sun and lost. As a result MS had to remove the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) from Windows. The JVM will be removed if you install the Windows XP SP1a.

I would try reinstalling the Sun JVM again.

I forgot to mention that we are running Win2k, SP4 on these PC's.

We reinstalled Sun's JVM, but still no luck getting PB to work. It seems to work fine with IE, however.

It is strange that this problem affects some PC's but not others. They all have identical software and hardware setups. Something in the security patch installations must have messed up IE's interaction with PB. Oh well, we can always re-image these PC's if you don't have any other suggestions.

Thanks for your help.
