Microsoft Java Virtual Machine

Hi, I have installed Windows SP2, which has been slipstreamed onto a CD. (For those of you who don't know what that means, it is creating a new CD with the XP installation files with SP2 files on it, therefore you are installing XP with SP2 already installed instead of doing the two installations separately. Hopefully that's clear enough.) Anyway, back to my problem. After I installed this slipstreamed CD, I noticed that MSJVM wasn't installed; I have installed Java from Sun Microsystems as a replacement and hated it. It just has a lot of unecessary junk to deal with. Is there anyway to install MSJVM back onto my computer? I know this program is installed when using the DELL CD shipped with my system, which is XP Pro w/SP1. So the file(s) must be on there somewhere. How would I go about finding these?
 
If I didn't use my slipstreamed CD and just installed the XP Pro w/SP1 CD, and then install SP2. Would MSJVM remain installed or would the SP2 installation remove it?
 
Thanks for any help!!

you can download the "ms virtual machine" from here:
 
 
you will need to get the security update for the ms virtual machine from windows updates after you install the downloaded ms virtual machine installation program.. it is an important security update..
 
update: well, it seems like the link is dead, now, at least temporarily.. or, maybe it is just being blocked on my computer.. :)

03codyn,

"If I didn't use my slipstreamed CD and just installed the XP Pro w/SP1 CD, and then install SP2. Would MSJVM remain installed or would the SP2 installation remove it?"

Microsoft VM remained on my system after I installed SP2.

You can download Microsoft VM (3805 first, then update with 3810) from here.
