what's this Java update rubbish?

[Oldtimeram]

I would normally post this in the Lounge, but not many folk post in there and I want to know if this is aware or similar before I download it. I keep getting messages to update my Java and i believe this is probably spy ware?

This is the only site where I get this constant pop up. It is now getting so bad I was not able to post a reply earlier...It just would not let me do it

Anyone else having this issue? It is driving me mad!

It's malware so be very careful, exit asap, and don't download it

Thought so. I have had to switch to Firefox to post this reply

Still pops through on Firefox!

Something needs doing with this anyone know how to stop the thing?????

Could be OK have a look on a search for Jave updates. Anyway if you have an anti virus installed like AVG free it will warn you before installing if there is a problem.

Or you could just use ad blocker like moi.
There's a Chrome and Firefox version.
Won't even let that malware in. - view external link
