WASHINGTON January 12, 2013 (AP)

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is advising people to temporarily disable the Java software on their computers to avoid potential hacking attacks.

The recommendation came in an advisory issued late Thursday, following up on concerns raised by computer security experts.

Experts believe hackers have found a flaw in Java's coding that creates an opening for criminal activity and other high-tech mischief.

Java is a widely used technical language that allows computer programmers to write a wide variety of Internet applications and other software programs that can run on just about any computer's operating system.

Oracle Corp. bought Java as part of a $7.3 billion acquisition of the software's creator, Sun Microsystems, in 2010.

Oracle, which is based in Redwood Shores, Calif., had no immediate comment late Friday."

What's up with it? Exactly what the article says...

Waiting for wehateporn to give the conspiracy theory behind it. How come he didn't predict this?

Homeland Security - right on the fucking ball.

This has been known for a month or two - warnings came up in Google searches last November. I disabled my Java before Christmas.

Marion, why does your stupid tranny ass keep posting here?

Agreed; I knew that a long time back but the thing is, why does it take to government so long to alert the public? Not being conspiratorial................

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm................................ ......

:2 cents:

Fuck off Marion

Hopefully it will eventually take the hint.

Now if we can only disable you.

So let me guess. If they didn't warn the public is would be a conspiracy and now when they did it's also a conspiracy? That's what you're aiming at right?
