Warning: You should only attempt this on sites you trust.
Activate Java once
- When you see the "Click here to activate" message, simply click it to load the Java content normally.
Note: The next time you visit the site or any other that uses Java you will see this message again.
Always activate Java for a site
If you have a trusted site that uses Java and you need to use that site often, you can make Java work normally on just that website.
- Click the red plugin icon in the address bar and a message window will open.
- At the bottom of the message window, click the dropdown menu and choose .
- Now, whenever you visit this site, the plugin will automatically run and you won't get the "Click to activate" message.
