One reply on “How to Obtain the Java MSI Installer”
You need to run the offline java download for the MSI to go in this location. To do so, on http://www.java.com, click on downloads in the menu bar. Then click on more downloads link and select the offline version. When you install this, it will unpack the MSI to the location c:\documents and settings\\Application Data\Sun\Java\jre
Hope this helps.
