Care to answer the original question?
I don't know if JS or J is broken - chances are pretty high that the Sun VM interacts strongly with the WSH. I never had problems with the original MS setup.

If you use it enough to care about a fix...
Then you care enough to install an alternative.
Casual (not business) users of IE who can't be arsed to install something better won't meet with much sympathy (or help, for that matter), I think.
You're especially not going to get much help without a clearer description of the problem (Javascript applet??).

Re: If you use it enough to care about a fix...
I don't have a better description. It's previously unseen behavior - not an outright crash, but clunky, typical of third party stuff on Windows.

You don't have steps to reproduce it?
Which radar loops? Which "Javascript" applets?

Re: You don't have steps to reproduce it?
I just uninstalled the Sun JRE and Java Web Start. We'll see what happens. I've got everything back to "normal" for Windows.
The main symptoms were - sluggish network and image painting.
Right now it's fine.

Why are chances high that the Sun JVM interacts with WSH?
Given Microsoft's relationship with Java, I'd say the chances are, in fact, minimal.
Remember, kids - Java != Javascript. (Or ECMAScript. Or LiveScript. Or whatever you'd like to call it.)

Until you need to use a Java applet, sure.

Tested, passed
There is no question now that the Sun JRE was the issue.
Love those undocumented Windows hooks.
