Microsoft Virtual Machine????
 

Okay, I have a M. Virtual Machine CD , and someone told me today that I should install it...but what the hell is it???

And the Microsoft Virtual Machine website says that "ONCE INSTALLED,IT CAN NOT BE UN-INSTALLED"..which makes me question it even more.

HELP!

Hey Babagirls,

The fact that it is Microsoft would make me skeptical even without the "cannot unistall" LOL. I spent half of the first days on my puters after buying them, just unistalling a shitload of MS proggies that they always seem to come with.

My understanding is that it's kinda like a driver for a graphic card probably already installed on your puter....

Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not very familiar with it. I don't game and I try to stay away from Microsoft products whenever possible LOL.

It's supposed to help alot of plug in extras run correctly too so I read. We couldn't get some of the new stuff to run on sites a couple years ago and once we updated it, they ran right. Not sure why, maybe to interface windows to them better.

We never update it until its been out about a month.

They have updated that thing like 4 times in the last 8 mos.

Quien sabe lol (I think thats the right words) http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

it's for running java applets

tools>internet options>advanced is where you can tweak it - i would suggest going to windows update rather than installing it from a disc, as it is probably already installed and you may have an older version on the disc

here is a review

A self-contained operating environment that behaves as if it is a separate computer. For example, Java applets run in a Java virtual machine (VM) that has no access to the host operating system. This design has two advantages:

System Independence: A Java application will run the same in any Java VM, regardless of the hardware and software underlying the system.
Security: Because the VM has no contact with the operating system, there is little possibility of a Java program damaging other files or applications.
The second advantage, however, has a downside. Because programs running in a VM are separate from the operating system, they cannot take advantage of special operating system features.


Now I beleive I just collected a T-Shirt for this ... ;-)

Hmmm..okay, I still dont know whether or not I should install it (from the website as an updated thing).

As most of you know, I "perfom" on an adult site. And when I run the software, if I dont refresh my browser every 5 mins's, my IE "Perfoms an illegal operation" and shuts down.

Now, I talked to the CREATOR of the software, and I seem to be the only one with that problem. He said to install Virtual Machine and it SHOULD cure the problem.

can you help me out? http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

oops...didnt see your post there , wizdom...but I STILL need a reply to my question... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

You GO wiZ! lol I was trying to get some of that out but I never remember what those ms sites say when I read it. Just bits and pieces http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/frown.gif

The updates normally just fix bugs they find with different java etc. It never hurt my cam site when I ran meta or java, or even streaming when we updated. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/wink.gif

Yes, you should definitely update your Java virtual machine. If you don't trust Microsoft implementation of Sun Microsystems standard, then I strongly encourage you to install the Sun implementation found here : ftp://ftp.java.sun.com/pub/j2sdk/1.3.0/02828276/j2re-1_3_0_02-win.exe.

OK, I feel like a dumbass.

I promise Babagirls to look it up first prior to posting next time LOL. I don't have a clue as to what I was confusing it with. Thank goodness other people on this board know what the hell they're talking about. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif
