      You say this is a 'Java error'.
      Control Panels > Java settings.... and try adjusting these and retry SUp ?

        It cannot be Java. It is not even needed for SU and I do not think it would be triggered if one wants to install SU.
        Probably javascript, isn't it?

        Maybe reinstalling IE would be good. Uninstall and reinstall.

        Also, you can try to create a new user profile on your computer and install SU there first. I have heard such things already (IE gets compromised on user account basis).

              Just before posting pics, I went to Java site and upgraded all I could for Win7 and IE8
              AND
              Wend to IE site and upgraded or 'reinstalled' repaired this brand new IE8 on here.
              and
              still. I just don't know. I'll keep pluggin' in here and there and maybe.

                Thank you all for your advices though, I really do appreciate them. I'll keep checking back and trying.

                  It's javascript. Have you also tried to install it on another user account than yours on the computer as I suggested?

                    Finally could get back to solving this mystery. I did create a new ID. Thank you; that led to solving the dilemma; er. . headache . . worse!
                    The solution is a 'duh' moment! Da ta da DAHHhhhh!
                    Window's personalization settings for 'Transparancies.' Though I excluded this initially on all accounts, once I set up a new ID; installed SU8; happily surprised it worked! 😍 Thank you again.

                    Each step of setting my own 'personalizations' I reopened SU to be sure. What do you know?
                    SU 7 nor 8 will show right with Window's CLASSIC nor High Constrast settings. Imagine that.

                    Retro, (hind sight 20/20) 'transparancies'; why didn't I look further into them and discount them so quickly? answ: b'cause they shouldn't be related to the problem?
                    Why would anyone dare[/ithink THAT about a "Microsoft" product that constantly required downloads, upgrades, n fixes?. . .] duh!
                    (note: the new ID resulted in IE8 loading; which I was stalling as long as possible; OH well)
                    I went back n forth; setting and re-setting the 'personalizations' and sure enough, that's it. I just am not particularly fond of the 'transparancy' set up, but will gladly sacrifice comfort to use SU, maybe I'll get used to them.
                    Look! Witness! Be Amazed!

                    Thanks again for all input. Though I set up the 2nd ID; I hadn't had the gumption to try to do SU process again:
                    clean drive of all reminants; double check; re-download; re-install . . . all that.
                    Glad I finally did!

                    Now I can start learning how to use the 'follow me' tool to recreate my round dinning room wood table's edge! To lathe! That looks like fun! and of course do the 'work' I need to do in it too, but it's all fun to me.

                      Though I still get Java error???? seems to effect nothing at my beginner's level though,

                      See below, with CLASSIC setting the problem reoccurs.
