In principle, if ACS can use a "network copy" of the JVM, what's to
stop other applications from using *that same copy*? It sounds a bit
like security through obscurity to me. I get that this may be enough
for some purposes, especially if you're just concerned about
*accidental* Java use. But if the company policy is to lock down all
the workstations to actively prevent Java from being run on them, this
doesn't sound like it accomplishes that.

Please understand that I am not trying to argue against *you*. If
there's anything I'm against in this thread, it's the anti-Java
policy. I think that idea is rather misguided.
