I have IE six and since I do some programming, MS Dev studio installed. Because I installed dev studio, whenever I’m at a poorly scripted Java webpage, MS runtime debugging INSISTS on giving me a popup dialog on if I want to debug the current webpage. HOW DO I TURN THIS OFF??? I hate being bugged everytime I’m ata a site with a silly error I don’t care bout!
