Thanks for responding. I did install Java & also went into Norton's =
unerase wizard where I thought I located & restored it.  However, when I =
did a new search for the jdbgmgr.exe it did not locate the original =
"teddy bear" icon file.  What approach should I take with Java - it =
appeared to just install itself and quietly disappear - the options =
offered didn't make any sense (Notebook, etc.)  Do I have to click on =
anything specific for it to repair?
Sorry to appear so helpless, but I'm really frazzled with the =
devastation of my old hard drive and lost data, etc.

  Hi Bruce,

  I think you meant your post for me. Simply install Sun Java and it =
will
  "repair" the problem.
