1497 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
Package curl-7.15.5-2.1.el5_3.5.i386 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[root@dell2400 ~]#

curl is already installed, so it must be something else.   I am going

java.com site open in Mozilla Firefox before I do it and maybe that
will work.
