Default Re: Oracle fixes critical hole in Java, may have known about the issue for months

Run noscript. Doesn't matter if java is patched or not, the malware can not interact with java unless you ok it.

*edit* Java is popular because it can be programmed for all OSes. Recently was an article that malware was looking at browser identification routines when you arrived at an infected site and gave you malware, dependent on what OS you were running. Mac, Linux, and Windows, all got their own version served to them.
