Googling seems to indicate that that you are either downloading the wrong
version of the Java VM (note Bill that it's NOT Java *script* - that's
something completely different!), or that you actually already HAVE a Java
VM installed and you are installing another, different version over the top.

1. You do not need to format and reinstall XP (that is overkill in most
situations).
2. If your version of XP has the original SP1 built into it, you probably
have Java already. Have you tried using the link Linda gave you BEFORE
installing the other Java VM?
3. If you do need to download and install Java, then be really sure that you
have the right version, and have uninstalled any existing version first.

Despite what your AV says, you almost certainly do not have a virus.

This is also beginning to move beyond the scope of this list, so you might
want to take it to another Windows-based forum like this one:

I re-formatted my H.D. and then installed XP. I then did a complete trend
micro scan and a complete symantec scan and it comes up clean.I download the
java script from sun.com and do a scan and BANG...''Java Byte Verify'' every
time.This is the problem I am continuously having.I once again having this
time paid someone to do a complete strip of the entire hard drive,memory
etc.re-installed XP Pro and then download JVM and my java Byte is there.Any
help would really be appreciated.....bill
