Below is a copy of a letter I sent to playlink and their response. I have just downloaded the recommended java from this site and have yet to test it. Thought this might help some of you others with problems.
PlayLink's Pinochle is in the very early Beta Testing phase, which means
there are many bugs that need to be worked out and to be discovered.
Until then, please check to see if you're running the proper version of
Java:
To find out if you have the proper version, please do the following.
-Goto Start > Run
-Type:
Command
-In the DOS window
Type:
JRE
[Hit enter]
The first line will show a version result.
The version should show 1.1.8_003.
If not, please install the JRE 1.1.8 from the link below.
This is the version that is most compatible with PlayLink.

If possible, please send a step by step description of the glitches and bugs
you're receiving.
Thanks.
[Please include your username and all previous messages with your response.
Thank you.]
