This means that unless we disable Java updates completely, which is not recommended, we must continue to receive these pesky messages. Confirmed that Java is being used by various authorities and companies to snoop on you.
In Sigapore, brokers use it to prevent access to information at certain critical times, snoop on your activites. Authorities use it to activate the camera, deactivate the CDrom, transmit trojans, etc. Highly insecure, unprofessional, underhand.

Next, another prompt will likely appear as shown below:. Click Run to allow the application to run. If you have reached this stage, you have Java, though not necessarily the latest edition.

It looks like some people are still recommending that people disable Java if they don't specifically need to utilize the program. Firefox wasn't even allowing the Java add-on to be used at all in January - even with the newest version.
Now I think Firefox allows you to use whatever the latest version is, but they give you a warning each time and you have to click approval indicating that the site you are visiting is known "safe. Another person who uninstalled Java here.

If you don't want this remove Java. I would recommend using the free tool "revo uninstaller" to remove all traces of Java from your computer.
