Getting into Pogo.com

I recently got this new computer with Windows Vista and I am having a major
problem with getting pictures and games from Pogo.com to load. Also, am
having problems with staying in some of the games.

Can this be fixed from my end or do I have to yell and scream at Pogo?

Aren't the Pogo games Java? You might need to go to
http://java.sun.com/getjava and install a Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
Since Sun's lawsuit against Microsoft, MS operating system do not come
with Java.

I will try that. We do have Java on here, however, it does seem to not do
what I want it to. Thank you. Will let you know what happens

Pogo has been extremely unstable for me since I moved to Vista.
Sometimes 2-3 times to get a game loaded, and then half the time a
game will fail halfway through with a generic pogo error about server
connectivity. Have not resolved it here, so I have stopped using Pogo
for the most part. Good luck finding Pogo support, btw...

In control panel, click Java. In Java control panel, bottom section, click
Settings, delete all offline files.
When you go back to Pogo, the applet will reload with the correct version.
Deleting IE Temp files between sessions helps as well. And put pogo.com in
popup blocker exceptions.
