Java applet locks up PC when trying to play games

I have a win98 pc that recently locks up whenever I try to play Java based games (pogo.com, msn, yahoo). Per pogo I have removed microsoft's version and put sun's on there. The pc would not lock up, but would just say loading. After removing sun's and replacing microsoft's version, again, same lock up results. Also, whenever this lock up takes place, I manually reboot, yet my router cannot make a connection with my dsl modem. I have to power cycle the router and the modem for it to work again. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been at this for days. Thanks.

Can't really offer a solution, but I just worked on a 
Windows 98 machine that would lock up at Pogo.  He 
had downloaded SUN JAVA.  I replaced it with his 
original MS JAVA ver 4.79.2405 from the CD and it 
solved all problems.


If you have made updates, that could be causing the 
problems.

I have installed updates, but how would I know which update is causing the problem? How can I uninstall one of the updates? I currently have that version MS Java on my machine, so maybe it is one of the updates causing the problem.
