Yep, there is another Java out there which can hang your
browser. I used to have a laugh visiting Angelfire because I
would perpetually forget to turn off my Java and Netscape would
wrap around itself, then I would visit the site I wanted with kfm
after killing (-9) Netscape. I have a host of kfm bookmarks now
for hostile Java sites. Actually Angelfire uses linux, so you
would think they would have the correct java/javascript, but
no... FrontPage Extensions are running too.
