Coop, I got a serious Trojan with a Java update (avast found it, and removed it). I uninstalled Java, reinstalled it, but now no pics come up.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance if you can help. I'm off to Opening Day and won't be here until 7PM or so.

So your condom is faulty, you caught a virus and now can no longer look at porn?

Unless you are using a java app to view the pictures, there usually is no dependancy on java to view static images.

Try going in the control pannel and finding the Java settings, and in the java settings find the section on paths & settings and verify that the paths to the jre are valid for both the applet and runtime operations. If you see that there are some older paths that point to versions that no longer exist on your system, you should be able to disable them. Older versions that still exist can usually be left enabled with no worries, it's just invalid paths that you want to correct.

Another thing you can do, if you still have some of the older versions installed (which, despite the uninstall operation, you might actually still have them) is disable the newest version of java that is installed, so that the system uses one of the older versions.

Or go to sun's website and download and install an older version and then disable the newer version.

Wouldn't be the first time Sun has pushed out some bad code in their java releases.
