Marg, >>Should I uninstall Java then install it again?<< Yes! Keep Javascript and get rid of Java as it creates many problems and you don't need it. Joan >From snowy Massachusetts. ================= FROM another Joan: >>I stress that everything I have read says it is still important despite Oracle's recent updates to disable JAVA in your Web browsers...each one you use to access ANY Web sites. By disabling JAVA in the browsers you have not disabled JAVA applets that may be used ON YOUR COMPUTER for various older programs that may still apply JAVA and THESE are considered safe to use and keep enabled. The reason is that the vulnerabilities reported by the Dept. of Homeland Security all involve infiltration and infections through the Internet---via browsers with JAVA enabled...not from any use of JAVA applets ON your local computer system. JAVA vulnerabilities were responsible for much of the Internet ID theft (according to Homeland Security) and also is responsible for the recent Facebook hacking and the very recent Apple, Inc. hacking. This is something we ALL should be doing to protect us regardless of our antivirus and spyware/malware software being updated.<<
