About JAVA tools As of 12/31/2007 the Microsoft's JVM (MSJVM) is also no longer supported. This version of Java, originally released in 1998 by Microsoft has not been updated since 2003, except for infrequent security patches. The official end of product life, set set by Microsoft, for the MSJVM was 12/31/2007. For more information about the MSJVM end of life please see: http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/java/default.mspx. With this release of the calculators will not load the MSJVM even if it is installed and set as the default version of Java for your computer. All browsers will automatically find and use SUN's Java Plug-in. If this plug-in is not installed, you will be prompted to download and install it. Netscape, Firefox and Internet Explorer will all automatically download and install the SUN Java plulg-in without leaving the web-page where the calculator is located (users will be prompted before any installation occurs, with the option to cancel it if desired). Information and interactive calculators are made available to you as self-help tools for your independent use. We can not and do not guarantee their accuracy or their applicability to your circumstances. We encourage you to seek personalized advice from the qualified C. E. Humphrey Associates professionals regarding all personal finance issues. |
