74845 2002-08-29 09:55:00 I recently installed Java Runtime Environment 2 from sun to run some java based applications. However, now whenever a jav applet is displayed in a webpage, a java console icon appears in the taskbar, and menus flicker (eg IE menus and the start menu) when accessed. The problem disappears when I uninstall Java RE. Is there anyway I can stop the java consloe from running, and just use whatever java IE used before I installed JRE2?

Cheers as it is getting really annoying.

Changing my screen settings doesn't help.

You can remove the annoying icon under the control panel applet for Java, and the screen flicker can be removed by disabling the Java plug-in, but not the JVM either by changing the Java control panel settings, or disabling it under Tools>Internet Options>Advanced in IE.

Thanks Anyway
