from that page select the second one down, which reads:
J2SE v 1.4.2_12 JRE includes the JVM technology
The J2SE Java Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications.
go for the offline installer, download and run the setup.
just accept yes to any warning dialogs and allow the applet through your firewall and all will be well.
on a slightly different note, microsoft making virtual pc a freebie is one of the best things they've done recently - can't believe how much i use it... any of those little apps that look useful that in the past i'd be slightly afraid of installing incase they damage my windows install i can now play with until my hearts content, and, more importantly i can develop my server service applications without having to go up starts and reset the pc every now and again when i make an error.
