Could be way off base here, so disregard if I am talking about something completely different ... but the reason Java VM wasn't included dates back to the lawsuit with MS and Sun Microsystem. They basically agreed after a certain date, believe was March 10, 2003, any further releases of their software would not include their release of Java VM. That is evident in W2K SP4 CD releases and W2003 Server, not sure about XP, but I expect the same in actual new media released since the lawsuit. That would explain why PPC2002 has Javascirpt and 2003 does not.

As for a solution, I am not aware of one, sorry.
