surefire Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 (edited) I'm not talking about javascript. I'm talking about java. Any page with java freezes for about 5 seconds while my machine loads up the Java plugin and the content is served. I'm sure it's good for some things. And admittedly, I've seen some nifty apps with it. But please give me a warning before forcing java down my throat.

Guest Serpentine Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I agree. I long for the good old days when java was just an island and a drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borfast Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I wonder if there's a Java equivalent of Flashblock... anyone knows something like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Thomas Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Can this be what you are looking for, Raul? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 it's sad how these exploits of java (which i can't stand either) and flash can be used for something other then legitimate uses, which then blocks quality information as well as the spam we all hate. and ads.. i've found that pop-under, or forwarding you to the ad, then you have to hit the back button to get the actual content. but that's another thread java has it's uses, i just wish it was possible to make it quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
