jp2ssv.dll slows down new tabs with IE7/Vista

843798Dec 8 2008 — edited Nov 12 2009

java version "1.6.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
IE7/Vista Home Basic (SP1, ITA, x86) all fully updated.

If the ActiveX plugin for IE7 named 'Java (tm) Plug-In 2 SSV Helper' (jp2ssv.dll) is enabled, IE7 takes 3-4 seconds to open every new tab. A very boring delay.
If I disable that ActiveX control only, everything works fine at the expected speed, both Java web-based pages and IE7.
What's this ActiveX for? And why it causes long 3-4 secs delay when enabled?
