Java zero-day vulnerability: Why you should disable Java on your browser right now.

...and another:

Disable Java NOW, users told, as 0-day exploit hits web • The Register

It was also on the National morning news. I don't remember which network but was ABC NBC OR CBS. That is what got me researching.
