Flash did, not sure about Java, because I never had the runtime installed. Maybe you used NoScript? edit: If I remember correctly, at first Flash wasn't blocked by browsers, but it was abused just like JavaScript is today and because of that NoScript came along. Then I think browsers started blocking Flash by default once JavaScript took over.
