W2K, IE, and Java Problem

This is a discussion about W2K, IE, and Java Problem in the Windows Software category; Sometime yesterday Internet explorer stopped viewing/loading Java applets. I'm running Windows 2000 with all of the critical updates from MS. Javascript seems to still be running okay based on a couple of checks that I ran on other websites, but Java itself appears dead.

Sometime yesterday Internet explorer stopped viewing/loading Java applets. I'm running Windows 2000 with all of the "critical" updates from MS. Javascript seems to still be running okay based on a couple of checks that I ran on other websites, but Java itself appears dead.
 
I'm very new with W2K, and I'm not exactly sure how to proceed. I've run SFC.EXE /SCANNOW, but nothing was reported from the action (not that I'm sure anything was supposed to be). I've fiddled with the security settings to no avail (they are pretty much like I have them in W95 and NT 4.0 - which still work). I've enabled the JIT selection under the setup menu.
 
How do I reinstall IE under W2K, or does anyone have a better plan of attack?
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OP
I took it one step further actually. I decided to start completely over - reformatted and reinstalled. Everything is working fine now. I have no idea what caused the problem initially, though.
