"Wrong Forum"
Try downloading Opera (with the Java bits) and then enabling Java, and trying it there.

i try to download and get a message which says: The server, while acting as a gateway or a proxy, received an invalid response from the upstream server it assessed in attempting to fulfil the request.
Does this mean I cannot get it?

of course you can download from MS. they are not allowed to collect data about you that way since it is illegal.
