Perhaps we can figure it out.

It is not clear to me which browser you are using. I assume that you are
running MSFT Internet Explorer.

Most Windows XP systems have not shipped with the Microsoft Java Virtual
Machine. In 2001 MSFT dropped support for their JVM, and announced that it
would not be part of Windows XP. However, the JVM was available via the
web through WindowsUpdate for a brief period of time after that.

My theory is that you have one of the (relatively) few *XP* systems that
*do* have the Microsoft JVM.

So, I assume that you are running Internet Explorer with the Microsoft JVM.

The next release of Jmol will require Java 1.4 or better. The Microsoft
JVM is stuck at version 1.1 ... from around 1998. Therefore, the next
release of Jmol will not support the Microsoft JVM.

If you go to www.java.com you can easily download a modern Java
implementation that should support all current and future versions of
Jmol.
