Which Sun Java should I install?

The site you are accessing sounds malicious, mstsc is a Terminal Services client for windows so I would question the integrity of the system

What browser are you using to access the site

Can you please give the output of:

uname -a

We can then know what Java to get you.

Linux NetBookU 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009
i686 GNU/Linux
is the return of uname -a
CHROME
is the browser I use

The site I'm accessing the site of a client which I normally enter thru
Windows XP / Chrome. I don't to depend on Windows since it is unstable and I
can not enter thru Linux \ VBox \ Windows \ Chrome.

Thanks for your prompt atention

Alan

The site is of client and I enter thru Windows XP / Chrome
Chrome is the browser I-m using
The return of uname -a is: Linux NetBookU 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin

you may need to link the .so file to your plugins folder but i have personally always use 64bit and the .bin file

If you install the package and you don't get flash then run this and give the output:

sudo find / -iname "libnpjp2.so"

Thanks

I ran the apt-get and go a broken link in the midle, then I updated the
system as it requested.
I was not able to connect. It continued to request that I install Sun Java.
Runnig the Find
returned: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.15/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so

ok run this and you will be ok:

mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins; ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.15/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so

then restart firefox

You can use various java testing pages to make sure java is ok.

First I must mention that I was using Chrome, I ran both cmds
 and then went to http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
with Firefox as testing with FF I also got the same error mentioned above.
There I got that the last release was not installed and recommended that I
should install it
I downloaded it and ran the following:
alan@NetBookU:~$ chmod a+x jre-6u20-linux-i586-rpm.bin
chmod: cannot access `jre-6u20-linux-i586-rpm.bin': No such file or
directory
 There I got stock

@ Alan Abbott

In synaptic find sun-java6-jre ( I believe that is the package you want to install) amd mark it for reinstall.You have to accept Java license to get Java run.

You want the .bin not the rpm.bin what zvacet says will sort you out

You will also get 32bit java when you install ubuntu-restricted-extras
