Tythus 1307 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Hi Guys, Just a mention on something I hope the majority of you are doing already that oracle have recently released a big bumper batch of java updates and fixes these are really important and heavily affect the security of your machine. These exploits range from the benign to the ability to take over your PC so it is advised you update as soon as possible! To add forewarning the BBC has reported that attacks using these methods have already happened. To update either use your updater tool that came with java or go to either Oracle's site here or java.com. Thanks for reading, Tythus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

domainoft 191 Share Posted October 17, 2013 If there bank uses Java for there online sites it could easily do that. Updating is always good, knowing what and why your updating is always better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir lusty 15 Share Posted October 17, 2013 How would Java go about doing that? We have something called "Nem ide" which pretty much is our bank and it uses Java but it dosen´t support the newest ones so if we log in it will "****" with our account Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overland 349 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I presume that this only affects Java 7? As I have both 6 and 7. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
