I actually have readers. I just noticed this.<br/><br/>To the anonymous, sorry for not noticing your question earlier :) As far as what to do, yes, once you find offending JAR files, try removing them (first all at once, then putting them back one at a time until the problem comes back again. Then you've identified the problematic JAR).<br/><br/>You can go ahead and remove those offending jars from the directory to resolve your MATLAB problem. However, be sure that you keep a copy around, just in case whatever installed it in the first place decides that it really wants that one back. Wow. I actually have readers. I just noticed this.

Do you trash/rename the offending file(s)? I am not a Java expert so any help is greatly appreciated.<br/><br/>Thank you. Can someone let me know exact steps to resolve this error?

Many thanks, too!

Turns out I had a xercesImpl.jar in both /Library/Java/Extensions and my matlab/java/jarext folders, but no xerces.jar in my matlab folder. It took a bit of playing around with the various permutations of having these files exist under their correct names (and rebooting) to get those error messages to disappear and online help to work again.<br/><br/>Thanks again.
