TURN OFF JAVA. I have two browsers.. Crome and Firefox.... Java is always disabled in Firefox so I dont forget. All viruses via web browser comes from Java now days. They have direct access to your OS. You can also set to disable Java except for certain sits in Firefox I think. Add a safe site like xtremeidots.com... well maybe another site. lol ChknFngr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Security issues are dogging the code, the latest fix may cause almost as many problems as it solves, and now Apple has decided to block Java completely. French blog MacGeneration originally picked upthe blockade, noticing that an update to Apple's XProtect now blocksall versions of Java on OS X 10.6 (aka Snow Leopard) and above, thesecond time in two weeks Apple has blocked Oracle's code." http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/02/01/apple_blocks_java_mac/ Edited February 1, 2013 by DEEJAYKEG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
