>This may sound silly, but how do I display the JAVA forum in UT instead of the FP forum?

You're working virtual so you won't have a listbox on top of the upper right frame to change forum. You have Java as your default which is probably what you want. However, you don't see messages in it as there is no message. There isn't that much traffic in that forum. Those messages you get are messages from the forums you have checked in your profile. However, no Java message so you can't see one. If you create one or as soon as their is one, you'll see it among new messages as you work virtual thus no need to change forum.
