Java Exploit?


  • Java Exploit?

    Today when opening z31p forums, my antivirus (AVG Free Edition) pops up warning that a Java exploit was blocked.

    See below:

    Weird, that's referencing a third party site, and the only external links here are people's sigs and pics since there's no ads

    BTW you should uninstall java, I did and haven't run into anything requiring putting it back yet

    Hm, it's possible this is coming from my side and isn't an issue with z31p. Just something to watch for just in case.

    I need java for work D:

    AVG Free is known for its false positives.

    I will look into any security issues with Java, but I highly doubt there is a problem.

    Thanks for the heads up.
