Java, apparently, is destined to be one of those apps that is so easily hacked, that patches will be a daily event. Grrrrr.

Indeed, for now, it seems the only recourse is to ensure it is fully disabled.

A pox on all their houses…

Oracle Oracles, on the other hand, are most worthy and we shall sing their praises!

Even though I think I have my Java locked down, I would manually remove v7, if I could find all the right pieces.

Me wonders why some enterprising chap or chapette hasn't developed a Java 7 uninstaller. Alas, I am of little faith re Oracle rising to that occasion.

But one can check to see if Java is accessible by running the test applet (at the bottom of the page).
