Clarification.........(note boots just posted in while I was typing)
"no problems other than I can no longer play games on Pogo"Does that mean you haven't been able to ever since you got the new computer (w/Vista), or was it working for a short time with the new computer?
If it did work, then maybe we are looking at settings and/or anti-spy apps you may have added or gotten updates for.
If from the start of using the new computer, that makes it tougher.
The thinking to update Java might be good, but I would think your old XP rig would have an older copy than the new Vista rig would.
In any case, is this the download you got for it......
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 3 ?

Just making sure you grabbed the correct one.
There is an install instruction link there under the title.
Since I don't allow IE7 to be on any of my computers, and don't have my copy of Vista installed yet, I can't speak to the settings to tweak for that, if it is a setting problem.
My mom here played on POGO in the freebies games, so can't say how the pay deal goes, but I bet the secure link they used to access it may be what's being screwed by the new computer's situation.
Something you can try while waiting for a reply from the Vista users here, is to try a different browser.............

I use an older copy of Firefox to access some pages my IE6 & spyware blaster host files won't let me get to (at times).
You'll have to import the favorite links from IE or type the pogo url into the firefox browser's address bar, otherwise your current link (start/favorites and/or desktop icon) will launch IE.
