I haven't read the article, but here's what I know :
Microsoft has taken the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) out of Explorer 6. It's not Javascript, but Java (it's Sun MS trialing Microsoft...).

Basically, the JVM is a little program that interprets Java code. You have to download it if you want to be able to execute Java now.

Conclusion : use Netscape !

Yeah that's Java not javascript.. different beasty..

I do not however support POM's concept that this is a final straw or anything like that, which will force me to go NN. There are still to many nice features about IE that I like. And as for downloading something, that is going to happen all the time, no matter what browser you have.

As always, to each their own.

Netscape!? people still use that?! dam...i thought that died out a long time ago. I like IE6, so if I have to dl something to view Java correctly so be it.

Doesn't mean anything. It's just that Phil reads like Fil, which means Wire. Actually, that's not totally true, as one might extrapolate a little bit, thinking that saying that somebody is wire could mean that he's very very skinny... <--- was that English at all ??
