Don’t quote me on "since version 4" because I honestly can say that I have seen any difference/speed increase/stability* improvements

IE6 does not include a java vm, when required IE 6 will ask you to download and install the java vm if auto downloading is on, the java vm is the same one that has shipped with ie since version 4.

So users upgrading to IE 6 will probably have a java vm, but users with xp wont have  because the vm is not included in xp or ie6

I installed IE6 over IE5.5 (Had to do DEFAULT installation for everything to work fine) and Java is working fine as well.
