Where did you download java from?

In the link are instructions for removing YahooTool Bar

Fire Fox and Sidney Chong Co, I am not clear what this is yet.

On another note make sure you remove any older versions of Java through the add/ remove programs list.

My Java icon in the control panel and check update.

Mozilla/firefox, Sidney Chong co and Yahoo partner toolbar came bundle with the Java 11 update. No options for me to opt out. Regcleaner showed them as new items. They are not in add/remove and searching files and folder does not being them up. No toolbar to click on to uninstall.

Yes, I removed the old version of Java.

Java 6 Update 13 Question

Back again to report. I double clicked on the coffee cup icon, the box that came up had tabs. General, Update, Java, Security and Advanced. I clicked on Update. It is set to notify me before install, there is a check mark next to check for updates automatically. When I clicked on the lower button to check for updates the msg read: You already have the latest Java (TM) Platform on this system. But the version is 6 Update 11 according to this info and what's in the add/remove section. I can't make sense of this. When I went to the Java site, there were so many different 6 Update 13 that I didn't do anything there. Should I just not worry about the strangeness of this whole matter, or should I be looking to get 6 Update 13 for my XP? Thank you. Sapphires

Look in your uninstall programs for Oracle Java or used to be named Sun Java. Or look in your program files off the start menu for them too & should see an uninstaller there. Just uninstall java and forget about it unless you need it ....

Installed both 32/64 bit java in win8 ie10, then disabled it in browser add-0ns. Seems smart and has only asked a couple times in about a week if I want to run a java webpage item. Which magically/appropriately were ok or desired to run. Quick and simple popup message box with what it is info.

I did the update to Java-11 last night too from the tray near the clock. Refused the MSN toolbar and don't see anything like that. How did you know they were on your machine? Should I be looking for them?

I installed Java 6 version 11 and had no problems. The link below for those who are unsure which version they have is a safe link to the Java site, not a third party site.

Sadly these day we need to check every page before clicking 'Next' or 'Install' as so many program now piggyback other things to earn income. Yahoo seems determined to get back near the top of the heap in popularity and seem to use this method a lot.

I installed mine through Secunia PSI and see no evidence of any other add-ons.
