Don't know for sure because Avast uses different names.

Yep, people should make sure they have MS Virtual Machine 3810 or higher installed. It's another Microsoft exploit.

Okay, got it installed!
Thanks!
I guess this is a result of the lawsuit between Sun and MS. I'm glad the Sun Java plugin is available for IE.
