I have recently gotten an error when I open Flash, or when I test a or Publish a movie. I get the following Error Message.  
Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash.  
The movie (actually website) worked before I started getting this message.  
Does anyone know what this means, I would reinstall Flash if it was just Flash, but my Flash came in Adobe Creative Suite 4 Web premium, it took about 7 to 8 hours to install the whole program.
