This has been discussed previously. It is tied to having both Java and JavaScript functioning in your browser. If Java is installed on your computer, be sure that both are enabled in your browser. Both must be functional in order to use the help.start() search engine which is a java applet. The following link provides information for Mozilla 1.5, which is the latest version, regarding installing Java: http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.5/installation-extras.html There is also a FAQ at Sun here: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/enable_browser.jsp If you do not have Java installed on your computer yet, you can go here: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/auto_install.jsp for instructions on how to download and install it.
