Uninstalled Java, but my apps still work??

I'm wondering if there's something I'm not looking for -- some way Java can start up.
I uninstalled it and I don't understand why some Java-based apps still work.
How is that possible?
The reason I care about this is because I removed Java in response to a virus.
I haven't found traces of the virus (possibly "Win32/TrojanDownloader.Agent.PDF trojan") anymore.
I've used all kinds of utils to get rid of it:
Manually: ProcessExplorer, HiJackThis, Process Scanner
Automated: NOD32, Malwarebytes, Ad-Aware, Spybot, TrojanHunter, Trojan Remover
I uninstalled Java with Windows Add/Remove.
And I don't have any "Java"-titled processes listed as currently running in my Windows Task Manager.
But now some Java programs work and some say they can't find Java.
Working: OpenOffice, FileZilla
Not Working: jEdit, Spark, DirSyncPro
I just noticed and deleted some "java" titled items in my Prefetch directory.
I'll restart now.

Ok, nothing reappeared in the "Prefetch" directory, but OpenOffice and FileZilla both work fine.

  • No animation or videos will play from Firefox, but other browsers still work fine. I have checked plugins and even updated to the Firefox 14 beta - no fix

    As of yesterday no animation or videos will play from Firefox, but other browsers still work fine. I have checked plugins and even updated to the Firefox 14 beta today, but this did not fix the problem.
    this problem started yesterday; before then there was no problem.
    I have updated everything I can find, and ran a system restore and disc clean.
    The problem still persists. What am I missing here?

    This happened to me too. This problem started suddenly with no changes made on my part. I had 11.2 Flash version with Firefox 13. I tried updating to the new Firefox, same problem, then updated to Flash 11.3. I even uninstalled RealPlayer.
    I read a solution on another forum and it was as easy as clearing my cache. Everything works fine now (even after reinstalling RealPlayer and allowing the download button function).

  • I´ve downloaded PS from CC, but the app wont work? Can re-download it?

    I´ve downloaded PS from CC, but the app wont work? Can re-download it?

    Hello,
    I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC (together with the Apps) doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
    I Quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
    Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html   and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
    If necessary and for further questions and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.

  • Moving within the EU - do Apps still work?

    Hi all,
    does anybody know if an App bought, e.g., with a German CC in Germany on the German Mac App Store will work also when my Apple ID will be associated with another non-German CC if I move elsewhere in the EU?
    I mean, if I buy the boxed version of an App I can run it wherever I want, at least in the EU (free movement of people and goods).
    Since the iTunes store UK, e.g., as a territoriality clause (for some unknown, and likely illegal reason, you cannot buy from another EU country content on the UK iTunes Store - same for Germany; why then can I buy a CD on Amazon.uk and have it shipped to Germany?), and the new iTunes Terms & Conditions, also for the German iTunes Store, specify for the Mac Apps that an Apple ID account with a valid German CC must be used, what happens then if I change country (I move) and I change the CC associated to the Apple ID? will the Apps still work?
    Thanks,
    P-

    why then can I buy a CD on Amazon.uk and have it shipped to Germany?),

  • A relative synced my iphone with his laptop without me knowing. It had a passcode on the phone but the sync still worked. I have since found out he is quite IT knowledgeable and has been known to track other peoples phones.  How is this data useful to him

    A relative synced my iphone with his laptop without me knowing. It had a passcode on the phone but the sync still worked. I have since found out he is quite IT knowledgeable and has been known to track other peoples phones that he wants to know information about.  How is my data useful to him and can he restore this data on another iPhone and run it parallel to mine? I have had people send me messages which I have not received. These have been screen shot to me later including time and I have just not got them. I had 4 weeks worth of messages go missing from my phone..I know that he synced my phone because his work laptops I'd came up in my settings. Also if the above can be done can he change the settings on my actual phone and access my location without placing tracking software on my phone.  Can someone please help here as I can't restore a backup to my phone for obvious reasons and refuse to change my number because of this loser.

    Connect the device to the computer.
    In iTunes, select the content desired to sync.
    Sync.
    This is all described in the User's Guide, reading it may be a good place to start.

  • When I sync with my iphone i get an error reporting message but the sync still works.  After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds until I quit Entourage.  How do I turn this message off?.

    Question: 
    When I sync with my iphone I get an error reporting message but the sync still works.  After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds as long as Entourage is open.  This continues until I quit Entourage.  How do I turn this message off? It interferes with any other work I am doing.   I appreciate any suggestions.

    I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
    I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.
    Edit: I just removed every project I have from the Media Browser. Still no luck.

    Hold down on the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Ignore the red slider. When the logo appears let go of the buttons.

  • HT4414 If I upgrade to Mountain Lion, will my Windows based apps still work or will I have to reinstall them?

    If I upgrade to Mountain Lion, will my Windows based apps still work or will I need to reinstall them?

    As I said, the Windows applications are running in the virtual machine, using the Windows system.  It is not directed affected by upgrading Mac OS X to Mountain Lion.  So you should not need to re-install anything that runs in the Windows virtual machine.
    The real question is, does Parallel Desktop, which is the Mac OS X application, work properly under Mountain Lion?  You should go to
    http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
    and make sure you are using the latest version that has been updated to work with Mountain Lion.

  • Upgraded to paid CC but IOS apps still say "Creative Cloud Free"

    I had the Creative Cloud app (amongst other Adode apps that are linked to my CC account) installed on my iPad before I paid the CC subscription. I then downloaded Lightroom after I paid, but the app says Trial Version. The Creative Cloud app says I have "Creative Cloud Free" only under Settings. I have tried logging out, logging back in, shutting the iPad down, reopening, uninstalling the app, reinstalling, turning around, touching the ground, burying the iPad under a full moon, but still I'm listed as Free. I have no issues downloading desktop apps, and when I log in on desktop my account says I have a paid subscription. Any ideas? Thanks

    Hi Gec78,
    I have verified everything and it seems everything is clear from our side.
    Can you please try the steps below:
    Delete the OPM.db File:
    Close the Creative Cloud application.
    Navigate to the OOBE folder.
    Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    Mac OS: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
    Delete the opm.db file.
    Launch Creative Cloud.
    if the issue still occurs please try the second solution below:
    Check your Hosts file:

  • Will all my apps still work after upgrade?

    I am always nervous doing any updates because inevitably some apps start working funny or don't work at all after them. I really want to update to Lion, but I'm concerned about some older apps I have, the number one being Final Cut Pro 7. Will this still work after the Lion upgrade? As well as all my other software?
    Thank you!

    How do you mean install onto a test drive? I've never done that before.
    Connect an bare external drive and install Lion onto that. Test all of your critical software to ensure it works. If you have some vitally important piece of 3rd party software that doesn't work in Lion, you may have to continue to use Snow Leopard until an update to that 3rd party software is available or you find a replacement.
