• Before you do install a Java SDK, check to see if you have any previous versions of Java installed and uninstall them (unless you need them for something else) - either the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) or the JDK (Developers Kit).

• I had a previous version installed and had to uninstall it via Start menu->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs. (ex: I had to remove java 1.4.2.)

• Download and install the Java SE JDK installer (JDK 6.0)
  • Current version is JDK 6 Update 22 (as of Oct 25, 2010)
  •  Keep in mind that newer release *could* cause changes, so be mindful if something is very new
