Agent Smith Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Be carefull with this one folks :scared: .You will be amazed at how many sites will only run with the M$ form of java :ranting: :censored: And I notice that on some platforms, once you use the tool to remove M$ java, you cannot reinstall it. :angry: :ph34r: Mr. M.

nellie2 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Worth taking note .... but I took MSVM off my machine about 3 months ago... I had to use the manual method though :( I haven't had any problems with accessing anywhere since then, although I'm sure there has got to be a first time!!!

nellie2 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 oh ps..... did you know you were less susceptable to hijackers/malware if you are running sunjava? CoolWeb doesn't like it, I know that much!!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Smith Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Well just as an example, some of the LearnDirect sites, being talked about in another post here on the Forum, will NOT work without M$ java :censored: And I know there are plenty more.Mr. M.

nellie2 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Hmmmm..... big job for web builders then because M$ stops supporting VM in September don't they?? :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Smith Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I thought they already had :D :D That's why LearnDirect have to supply their own download to sites which run the courses. Of course there is no chance the buggers will actually rewrite their sites properly so it uses the correct form of java :( :censored: Mr. M.

Chris Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Transitioning from the Microsoft Java Virtual MachineRemoving MSJV and installing the SUN version to prevent a coolweb infection is a little over the top.Simple precautions will stop you getting infected and if you do get infected its easy to remove the infecion. So there is nothing to worry about is there?Why anyone would want to remove MSJV beats me :huh:But MS have released tool:D f I have the need!

So there is nothing to worry about is there?Well yes I'm not suggesting that anyone should do that... it is just a plus of using Sun Java that is all..... more secure! :)And no there is nothing to worry about because the experts are managing to keep on top of new Coolweb variants (there was a little bit of a hiccup with Real Yellow Pages but I think that is sorted now).

andsome Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 If it ain't broke why fix it? I have Sun Java, and the MS product does not appear to cause any bother. I'm leaving well alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
