      Problem:

      JPI uses the system tray to display a cup-and-stream icon for the Java Console window. However, consumers normally assume the icon in the system tray is for configration. This may confuse the users.

      Solution:

      Modify the icon to launch Dynamic Configuration dialog by default, and provide access to Java Console as a separate menu items.

      java version "1.3.1"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1, mixed mode)

      After having installed the sun java plug in, it added a tray icon for the java
      console. This is simply STUPID for the average user !!! This should be *fully* transparent as most users will even not understand what is java.
