Java vm is from Sun. So I don't see the point in adding it to Windows. Same as Windows doesn't come with Flash player... ::-/
Hm... the best one?
I would only download THE one: http://www.java.com

It is infact illegal for MS to distribute a JavaVM I think now. Anyway, since Sun wrote the language, their VM should be the best. I'd rather go with that than one from MS, which would have all its security holes exposed within a month.

Edit: note, there are still sites with java-applets that do not work/load with Sun's Java (example: yahoo's game site).

Let me guess: that site was done in FrontPage... oh yes, FP6.0.

Anyway, I would still recommend going with Sun's JVM, as that will actually get updated.

If there are applets that don't work, its because they do not conform to the Java standard by relying on proprietry extensions.
