Web Start Weaknesses


·Web Start does not have the ability to reject an update.  
·No ability to update the application while it is running.  
·Size of the agent - you need the full JRE for many PCs  
·Limited OS specific launch points. (Note: at the time of this writing the SUN JDK for Linux did not create icons. The Blackdown version - blackdown.org - does.)
