Turn off my Java?
« on: April 14, 2010, 10:58:13 PM »
I received an email from a friend saying that I should disable my Java due to some big security hole in the last update, anyone know anything about this?

OK so just go to "tools" >>> add-ons >>> plugins: in the list there look for "Java Deployment Toolkit" and "Java Platform" >>> disable both of them. Re-enable them once the patch is there (you'll be warned by a pop up by Java updater).

ps: you're sure you got Java installed right?
