Just got this Tweet: CBS News@CBSNews Department of Homeland Security advising everyone temporarily disable Java software - http://cbsn.ws/Xrv21j |
I completely uninstalled java on my laptop. What is effect is Not having Java going to do? I know lots of web applications use it. |

I don't see it listed on there, so I must not have it. |
You could look on the Uninstall Programs section of the Control Panel and it will show it if you have it on your computer at all. All your Java's and Java Updates will be listed there. I have Java 6's and then 7 Update 9 that I got I think in June 2012 but it is disabled until there is a fix or patch or something or I know more if all versions are affected. When Homeland Security says it's dangerous, I'm a believer! |

Sure glad you posted that. I wouldn't have known a thing about it or probably even had Twitter up without your thread. Thanks for the heads up. |
I use FireFox as my web browser. They have advised against using Java for a long time. Don't know all the technical issues. I just prefer FireFox because it is much faster and has options that I prefer over Internet Explorer so I have tried to avoid Java. |
Just saw on Twitter Java 7 patch release may still have problems. I think it was from CBS News tweet. |
Forget the Super Bowl. Critical Java patch released; update now | ZDNet Newly released update out for Java. |
