Thanks Cactus, that let me open the link on the page. I now have a Java 2 platform icon in my task bar. Can I remove it from start up an just use it when needed?

It doesn't use up any resources....

You might be able to disable it from appearing in the task bar though.
Not sure on that one.
At least its working for you now.
