Interesting. Can you check what `navigator.javaEnabled()` returns for
you when java is disabled? I wonder if there's any way to test this
behavior without actually causing a warning (is it a modal dialog,
btw?). Maybe global `HTMLAppletElement` is only present when java is
installed? I tried disabling Java plugin in IE8 but a warning never
appears.
