      Description

        On my PC, Java Update kicked in and popped up a dialog for Google Toolbar with the following text:
        "Install a free program with the Java(TM)"

        I've never before seen java referred to as "the Java", and Java is not being used as an adjective in the sentence.

        See attached screenshot. This was Windows XP.
