Wow, JAVA rebooted my machine o.O

Was at DSLReports trying to do a speed test, it wasn't loading the applet, I hit F5 and saw the little border around it start to load, then hard-reboot time.


Yay Microsoft Java Machine!
 
Personally, I think Java is the biggest waste of time. DSLReports seems to love it to death though, which is why I normally ignore them for speedtests (toast.net is way better). But I was bored and felt like giving it a shot, sucks to be me cause it's the first time the machine has been rebooted in like a month, and I had like 5 downloads going 🙁

DL Sun's Java, disable the MS JVM and try again.

Yeah, so I can have yet another thing clogging my system tray, using up memory when it doesn't need to be, and looking like crap whenever it kicks in. Yeah, but no. I'll simply avoid the whole two or three sites that still rely heavily on Java.

Or you could install it and disable that junk.

😕

For most users, the Java VM only loads when you browse to a website that uses an applet.

The Microsoft VM is outdated, unstable garbage. Sun's VM has improved a lot over the years, and it works a whole lot better than Microsoft's.
