Installation Notes- Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

JVM component is required in your machine to run Java applets and applications. PPPshar Pro requires the JVM version 3161 or higher in your machine. The program "Check System" will check your machine for the presence of the JVM version which is required to run PPPshar Pro. You can access this program from the PPPsharPro program group.

PPPshar Pro also works in any Windows system which has Internet Explorer 5.x or 6 installed. The Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (JVM) component gets installed alongwith Internet Explorer 5.x or higher. Most installations of Internet Explorer browser (IE 5.x or 6) will contain the Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java which is required to run PPPshar.

If you have Windows 98, Me, NT (with SPs) or Win 2000, then the JVM required to run PPPshar Pro is already present in your computer. But if you have installed IE 5.x or 6, then the JVM may not be installed by default. Follow the procedure given below to update your machine with the latest JVM so that your machine can run Java applets and applications properly. Note: JVM is required only in the gateway machine. ie. the machine where pppshar will be installed.

You can update your system with the JVM in either of the following two ways:-

• Install or Update the Internet Explorer browser version 5, (IE5 or 6) by following the instructions given below.

(OR)

• Download and install the latest Java Virtual Machine (JVM) from this link
