You know Olivia,

Before we get all hung up on this Java thing, we mite want to look at some more 
things, like maybe cookies.  Try searching for apples website on google and 
entering the site from there, or, maybe deleting your cookies.  This seems to 
be as likely as a java problem.

You may have a damaged install and may need to reinstall the OS.  I had this 
happen once about 2 years ago, but, you know, make sure you have a good backup.
