Uninstalling Java Development Toolkit

Hi,
I'm having trouble with the Java Development Toolkit plugin for Firefox. I've tried disabling it but it automatically re-enables when I restart Firefox. So I tried uninstalling Java altogether.
However after uninstalling Java, the Java Development Toolkit plugin still remains in Firefox. Is that strange? Is there a way to uninstall/remove this plugin?
Thank you.

the pluin only activates when there is a page that needs that plugin. A better solution would be turning off hardware acceleration but you can still try the Java thing.

  • Disabling Java Development Toolkit

    Hi,
    I've been having some problems with Firefox lately (shockwave plugin crashes, redirects, choppy youtube videos) so I decided to try a few things. I updated all my plugins, cleared the cache, etc. One problem I'm having is with the Java plugins. I noticed that the Java Development Toolkit is known to be vulnerable by Firefox. I tried updating Java to the latest version but it still says that the plugin is vulnerable. I tried disabling it but it re-enables itself when I restart Firefox. I uninstalled Java altogether and the plugin still exists, this is strange correct?
    Anyway I was hoping someone could help me with disabling this plugin permanently. I would also like to know how big of a security risk this plugin is because I had it enabled for a while without my knowledge (I remember Firefox warning me about it and me disabling it but apparently it was re-enabled one way or another)..
    Thank you.

  • Removing Java Development toolkit 6.0.160.1

    How do I go about Removing Java Development toolkit 6.0.160.1?

    In Windows Explorer, locate C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\new_plugin\ - in there should be file named npdeploytk.dll
    Exit Firefox, rename the file for now, (i.e., DISABLED-npdeploytk.dll then restart Firefox and see if the Java Deployment Toolkit is gone. Then you can delete it.
    You should update Java to version 1.6.0.20. Start>Control Panel>Java, Update tab, click Update.
    NOTE: Each update will reinstall the Java Deployment Toolkit. The security issue causing older versions to be disabled has been fixed, so it won't prompt you to disable the latest version.
    If you are on Windows 64-bit, go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\new_plugin\ instead.

  • What is the Java Development Toolkit?

    I have been playing Pogo.com for 6 years, however, the last 2 weeks I am/was not able to play a game. They said to adjust computer settings, I did. They said contact my security, I did. Now, they say to install the Java Development Toolkit.

  • Difference between Java Deployment Toolkit Plug-in and deployJava.js

    I was reading this article:
    http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/deployment_toolkit.xml
    and I get confused about the purpose and use of the DT Plug-in and the deployJava.js.
    I always believe that the Deployment Toolkit is the set of functions of the deployJava.js file (like this link says: http://blogs.oracle.com/thejavatutorials/entry/deployment_toolkit_101) but according to the article there are two parts of the Deployment Toolkit: the Plug-in and the interface for the developer.
    I'm asking about all of this because the deployJava.js fails to detect the appropriate version of Java in some of the machines of our users and I was wondering if the DT Plug-in could help us improve the detection, but I don't know how exactly it detects the Java version and when it does it or how can I use it to solve detection problems?
    Most of this doubts are driven by the question in the article:
    "Does deployJava.js work if the Java DT Toolkit plug-in is disabled? Yes, deployJava.js contains some pure JavaScript functions, which will continue to work even if the Java DT Toolkit plug-in is disabled."
    So... why do I need the deployJava.js if the DT Plug-in exists or vice versa?
    Any help on this matter would be very appreciated.
    Thank you very much.

    Deployment toolkit is combination of native library and javascript helpers. javascript is the only official public API to native library.
    JRE is installed with DT native library that is left on the system if JRE is uninstalled.
    As of now DT native library is only available on Windows.
    Javascript helper functions use native library if it is available but many actions can be performed (with degraded accuracy, etc.) even if native library is not present.
    Note that there is new Javascript APIs for DT as alternative to deployJava.js. it is called [dtjava.js|http://download.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/deployment/deployment_toolkit.htm#BABJHEJA] and is primary API for JavaFX applications.
    However, it also supports pure Java apps and likely will be main JS API for DT going forward (some more testing and bug fixing may be needed).
    Hope this helps to clarify the relationship.

  • Uninstalled Java 6, installed Java 7, keep getting requests to install Java SE 6 plugin. Why?

    Because of the security issues with Java, I uninstalled Java 6 (using various terminal commands) and installed Java 7 from Oracle's website. Looking at /Library/Internet Plug-Ins, I can see that JavaAppletPlugin.plugin is there, and Get Info tells me that it is part of Java 7 Update 09.
    However, when I use Safari to try out a Java test page, or use one of the Java-based programs that I need to run for work, I get a message that says, "To open “PluginProcess,” you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now?"  (PluginProcess is replaced by the program name if I am running a Java program.) If I click "Install", the Apple version of Java 6 gets installed.
    This doesn't make sense to me. Why would Java 7 need the Apple Java 6 environment? And why doesn't Safari or other Java based programs recognize that the Java 7 JavaAppletPlugin.plugin is on my computer already?
    Although I'm not really an IT person, I am pretty handy with the Terminal and command line operations, so if fixing this means using the command line, I'm good with that.
    Thanks!

    I think I've found a solution to the problem that Java Applications doesn't use Java 7. This seems to work for me. Try it and please confirm if it works for you.
    1.
    Install Java SE Development Kit 7u9 from Oracle
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7u9-downloads-1859576 .html
    2.
    Execute something that triggers the prompt to install Java SE 6. for example i web site using java applet. And follow through with the installation. (after this you will have three java versions: Java6 32-bit, Java6 64-bit, Java7 64-bit)
    3.
    Open a new terminal window and execute the following commands.
    $ cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions
    $ sudo rm CurrentJDK
    Password: ********
    $ sudo ln -s /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_09.jdk/Contents/ CurrentJDK
    $ sudo ln -s CurrentJDK 1.7
    $ sudo ln -s CurrentJDK 1.7.0
    Note: I don't know if the last two lines are necessary, but I just tried to follow the existing pattern.

  • Where can I find a portal server for JAVA development?

    Hi, everyone:
    I am looking a portal server which can be used under Windows envorinment and related development environment (toolkit or SDK).
    I have done some search through IBM and SUN's web site and I can not find any portal servers that running on Windows plarform for download and related Windows development (toolkit or SDK).
    Where can I find some trial versions of portal servers running under Windows and related Windows development (toolkit or SDK)? I want to use JAVA to development portal, so Microsoft does not provide any useful information.
    I just want to use basic functions of portal servers so I think other portal servers other than IBM and SUN's can also be used, maybe an open source one can be used. But I do not know what are they and where can I get them. :-)
    So, anyone can help me to introduce a portal server that can meet my needs. Or provide me information where to download IBM or SUN's portal server running under Windows and related Windows development (toolkit or SDK).
    Best regards,
    George

    I just want to use portal server and deploy some
    applications written in JAVA. Have I made myself
    understood?
    Still not clear.
    Do you want a server application that deploys software. For example you create a game. Someone logs into your "portal server" and downloads the game from that?
    Or do you just want to know how to package a java app that you have already written, and then put it on a CD so someone can install that on their computer?

  • How to use KAWT with "Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.3 Beta"?

    Hi!
    Im new to developing java for mobile devices so all of this is pretty confusing for me. I started with installing suns:s "Wireless Toolkit 2.3 Beta" and it works fine but now I want to use awt classes so I started to look it up and that�s how I found out about kawt. I followed the tutorial at http://www.kawt.de/ and i was able to use it for Java Wireless Toolkit 1.0.4_02 so that it compiled fine and was run able.
    Then I tried the same thing in v 2.3 but I got a error that looked like this "Uncaught exception java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: awtDemo: /awt/event/ActionListener: Cannot create class in system package." when i tried to run it. It compiled fine when I pressed the build button witch wouldn�t have happened if i hadn�t installed it correctly. So I�m wondering if someone knows were to find a tutorial for installing kawt for "Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.3 Beta" or if anyone knows what might be wrong?
    I'd welcome any help
    Thanks!

    If using the zip install of DSEE, you need to use your own java container to host DSEE. Try downloading the latest Tomcat (http://tomcat.apache.org) and deploying your dscc in it.

  • Firefox plug-in: Java Deployment Toolkit

    JRE 6u17 (probably older versions as well) install for Firefox the plug-in as in stated in subject.
    What is this plug-in good for?
    What functionality will the user miss if he/she decides to deactivate/uninstall the java deployment toolkit?

    Contrary to what BIJ001 suggests, the Java Deployment Toolkit Plugin is installed in Java SE 6 Update 10 and above.
    More info for the Java Deployment Toolkit Plugin can be found at:
    http://java.sun.com/javase/6/6u10faq.jsp#DT
    http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/deployment_advice.html
    Ever since Java 6 Update 10, an NPAPI plugin and an ActiveX control (npdeploytk.dll and deploytk.dll, respectively) have both been installed by default with the JRE.
    You should be able to find them under one or more of these folders (there are other locations you may find them on your drive):
    C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin (both)
    C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\new_plugin (npdeploytk.dll only)
    C:\WINDOWS\system32 (deploytk.dll only)
    The this new functionality is the focus of attention for 2 recent vulnerabilities:

  • I "allowed" Java Deployment Toolkit, it made me upgrade java, and now there are ads everywhere

    I was doing homework on masteringgenetics and there was this box in the top left hand corner that said to allow java deployment toolkit because some of the content on the website needed it so I clicked "always allow". This then took me to java's website to update java and I was gullible so I did. Now there are random ads on most websites I go to and if I stay on there it takes me to some random website. I've tried disabling all plugins, uninstalling java, uninstalling then reinstalling firefox, but it still happened. It doesn't happen when I use google chrome so I think it's a firefox thing (actually now it's happening on chrome too).

    Oracle may be bundling other software with a Java update, so always be careful when installing or updating programs like Java and Flash and look carefully for any check boxes to installs such unwanted extras.
    You can check in "Windows Control Panel > Programs" for recently installed programs (sort by installed time) to see if any suspicious software shows up.

  • Java Deployment Toolkit and Japanese

    I can't figure out how to enable Japanese in Firefox. Since following existing tutorials yielded no positive results, I tried installing the latest Java, but that only made things worse. Now I have two problems:
    I still can't view Japanese characters.
    I can't uninstall the Java Deployment Toolkit plugin.
    The tutorials I've found on uninstalling the plugin don't work because I don't have the options they say to use. I'm using Firefox version 24.0 on Windows XP.

  • CRM Developer Toolkit Crash ?

    Hi, 
    I'm having troubles using the developer toolkit for crm. It worked for me for several projects. But now (after installing an update for sdk v.15) it seems that the crm plugin for VS 2012 is "crashing". It just "disappears". But .. what
    happens ? 
    - I create a new Project : "New Visual Studio Solution Template for CRM 2011"
    - Enter a solution - name "test" and click "OK"
    - You get the popup to connect to the server : 
    - Discovery Server : use servername, port and HTTP, Enable "Use default credentials"
    - Click Logon
    - I receive a list of organizations (3 -> i'm admin on those)
    - select an organization
    --> it starts to create a solution with my CrmPackage, Plugins and Workflow projects. (I cancel the Silverlight Project)
    --> After that, the "Connect to Dynamics Server" - form shows up again.
    --> so I re - enter the properties ... (as above)
    --> projects have been made, but the CRM explorer view isn't visible, so I click "View" -> "CRM Explorer"
    --> I get the "Connect to Dynamics CRM Server" popup again ... and this just continues like an endless loop ... I never see my CRM Explorer view ..
    Does somebody have the same problem ? Or is there a way to view log files ? Or ... something :-)? Cause ... I realy have no idea what's going wrong at the moment ... :-/

    Hello everyone,
    I am experiencing the same problem. But I have an additional bit of information: When I uninstall the Silverlight 5 SDK, then the solution is opened fine (with the message that for using the silverlight project, I have to install the SDK). I can see the
    CRM Explorer and browse through the solution in the CRM. I have the plugin- and workflow-project available. Everything but the silverlight project is available and fine.
    When I reinstall the silverlight SDK, I can easily create a standalone silverlight application in VS2012. But when I try the CRM Solution again, it crashes with the symptoms described above in the very moment that silverlight comes into play...
    Please help
