Taming Java add-on

If you install the Java browser add-on you're liable to find jqs.exe ("Java Quick Starter") consuming system resources at startup. This is because the install adds a Windows service called "Java Quick Starter". Get rid of it with the command

sc delete "JavaQuickStarterService"

NB the lack of spaces in the argument there.

Tested a page which had a Java applet the day after doing this and it worked fine.
