Where can I find Java ?

You can find the latest Java virtual machines here :

End users website : www.java.com
Technical website : www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads

Download the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for your operating system. (Approximate download size : 50 MB).

The latest version is 1.8 (named "Java SE Runtime Environment 8u131").

If you have already a Java Runtime Environment 1.6 or 1.7 installed you can keep it to run JANIS, but it is recommended to upgrade it to the latest version as this will increase security as weel as improve speed, integration and also correct some bugs.

If you have a 64bit operating system you can install both the 32bit and 64bit:

JANIS works indifferently with 32bit or 64bit
If your browser is a 32bit program (this is the common case) then having a 32bit JRE installed will enable launching JANIS from this website

Where can I find Java Web Start?

Java Web Start is part of the Java Runtime Environment (see above) and comes with the installation of Java. If you have an old version of Java the Web Start application was maybe not included, you are advised to upgrade your Java installation in that case.
