Answer 1

OK heres what you need to do.
Log on to yahoo mail or messenger 1st then go to games. This bypasses My Yahoo home page!
When you try getting in lounge or room and it doesn't work.click on pop up blocker. always allow tab it will say recent pop ups blocked.high light yahoo.com then click allow.1st thing you do when you get in lounge is check small windows in options box.once in room make sure you expand it to see chat area. This also gets rid of the ads. You may also need to do this;
Click on My PC ,disk drive C, open windows folder,next open Downloaded programs file. click game you want to play to high lite it.delete it.Now go back to game,it will prompt you to download a demo,do so and page will open! Your old download is stale since yahoo's new up grades.

CAUSE
There could be many reasons for the JVM crash. We are currently investigating the exact root cause of this problem. Here is a list of some possible causes. The applet or application that you were running may contain programming errors or bugs that caused the JVM to crash.
You may be running an older version of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) which contains bugs that can cause the JVM to crash.

This particular problem is currently under investigation. The workaround for this problem is:
Check to see if the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is installed correctly on your system. If you are able to run the testvm applet, then the JRE is installed and configured correctly on your system.

In that case, please contact the web site administrators or the software vendor to notify them of this issue.
