Java Version upgrade

Problem: A site runs a java applet that is not compatible with java 6 (1.6). The browser, IE has automatically downloaded the upgrade for java 1.6 and started using it. The site needs to be accessed through the browser, so get the browser to use Java 1.4 to run java applets.

Solution 1 (didn't work): Change applet runner settings in Control Panel - Java
Solution 2 (didn't work): Remove java version 6 from IE add ons.
Solution 3 (worked): Uninstall java 6, reinstall java 4.
