IE on a 64-bit PC is still 32-bit - at least the normal IE is - you have to use a different launch shortcut/executable to get 64-bit IE.

I have WDS working under 64-bit Windows 7 (using the standard 32-bit IE) with no problems.

The trick is... you have to manually create a Java security exception (a site exception) for the web site you are running the WDS from.

If you run WDS from bmwtech.ru (like I do) then the exception will look like this...



When you launch the WDS, you'll still be prompted to run the Java - just accept the prompt (click Run or whatever) and away it goes.

HTH...
