Will Microsoft JVM be uninstalled after Service Pack 3 installed?

[Guest Eran Karu]

I have a CD of Service Pack 3 and Microsoft JVM Removal Tool 1.0a as well.

 

I plan to make clean install of Windows XP Service Pack 1 soon (Microsoft

JVM is not uninstalled yet.) Then I will install Service Pack 3. However, I

wonder whether Microsoft Java Virtual Machine will be uninstalled after

Service Pack 3 installed.

 

If it will not be uninstalled, should I use Microsoft JVM Removal Tool to

uninstall it after Service Pack 3 installed? Or, should I better do it before

Service Pack 3 installed?

Thanks,

Is that Service Pack 1 or 1a ? 1a does not include the MSJVM.

IF this is indeed SP1 then the MSJVM will be installed along with XP.

Applying SP3 to it will *not* remove the MSJVM. MS can *not* include

their JVM in any of their current software but are not under any court

order to remove it from software previously released before said court

order.

Run the JVM uninstaller after your clean installation of SP1. Even if you

run it after installing SP3 it makes no difference.
