The '''Microsoft Java Virtual Machine''' ('''MSJVM''') is a [[discontinued software|discontinued]] proprietary [[Java virtual machine]] from [[Microsoft]]. It was first made available for [[Internet Explorer 3]] so that users could run [[Java applet]]s when browsing on the World Wide Web. It was the fastest Windows-based implementation of a Java virtual machine for the first two years after its release.<ref name="jworld">John Neffenger - [http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-08-1998/jw-08-volanomark.html Which Java VM scales best?], [[JavaWorld]], August 1, 1998 Quote:"Microsoft SDK 2.02 still stands alone as the only fast and scalable Java virtual machine. Our customers with the highest Web site traffic currently have no other viable choice for a JVM."</ref> [[Sun Microsystems]], the creator of Java, sued Microsoft in October 1997 for incompletely implementing the Java 1.1 standard.<ref name="jworld2">[http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-10-1997/jw-10-lawsuit.html]</ref> It was also named in the ''[[United States v. Microsoft Corp.]]'' antitrust civil actions, as an implementation of Microsoft's "[[Embrace, extend and extinguish]]" strategy. In 2001, Microsoft settled the lawsuit with Sun and discontinued its Java implementation.
