Then you should complain to the people who wrote the web page, not the
implementors of Java.

Personally I hate pages that use Java, it very, very rarely adds
anything useful to publically available web pages and (as you have
discovered) it isn't always easy to get the Java plugin (if that's
what you need) working well.

There are sometimes good reasons for using Java within a business (on
an intranet) but in that case the IT gurus should be responsible for
getting everything prepared so that it's easy for users.
