Hi, Just want to give a little bit more info on the problem:
I'd never really bothered with Java until I tried to play minecraft (to be quite honest, I'm not much of a computer person at all) but have since discovered there's some kind of issue with my Java. When I try to load my downloaded version of Minecraft it gives me an error message before I try to sign in - signing in is hopeless, btw. It just doesn't work. The error message I receive is a HTML code: "<html><body><font color="#808080"><br><br><br><br><br><br>… to update news<br>java.net.SocketException: Connection reset</center></font></body></html>" The in browser version does not work either.
After trawling through several help sites I discovered it was in fact a problem with my Java. It was recommended that I uninstall Java and try re-installing it. I did this and tried installing both the 32-bit and the 64-bit (though my laptop is 32-bit). The version I downloaded was the newest 7.4 version. I tested my Java download on the Java website after both downloads and both times it told me there was an error! The error message I am recieving is as follows:
"ClassNotFoundExcepton
testJava2_1.TestVMApplet.class"
I have tried running it on Firefox and IE as well as Chrome - Chrome being my default browser. I have also tried all of the points that Java suggests ("

Does anybody have any idea why this is happening and what else I can do?

Is there a java that doesn't change your computer?
Try downloading the latest version of java from oracle. Actually Java is simply a language. It is a tool. It should not change your computer. Something is wrong with your computer if Java changes your computer. Usually it is not Java changing your computer but a virus latching onto Java. You must keep your antivirus software up to date and you must keep your Java up to date or you will have problems. If you have a MAC, apple has stopped supporting Java. Hackers are using it to hack into computers. Update it from Oracle or get rid of it.
