I have the latest update to Java (v6.0.160.1). I have repeated PSI's "solutions" about 3 times over now; rebooted, rescanned, re-everythinged; and Java, INSECURE, will not go away. According to PSI my system is running at 99%. Still, something isn't right. This is telling me one of two things: 1.Secunia isn't running right; 2.There is still a problem with Java. However, I did a Java-running-right test at their website, and they said it was running OK. Does anyone have any suggestions here as to what is going on? Thanks all, seatug |

If you are new to Secunia PSI , to help resolve your problem , here are some instructions to help you first of all get the best out of PSI :- 1)use PSI in "advanced" mode ; 2)in the "settings" tab make sure that the box in the first/upper section is NOT ticked in order to have the maximum info available ; 3)tell us in which "tab(s)" your problem programme is located ; 4)in that tab , click on the + in the box at the left end of the programme , the page will expand ; 5)in the expanded page , tell us what is written in the "installation path" ; 6)in the "toolbox" section , lower down , the link "technical details" should confirm the installation path details ; 7)click on the link "open folder" and you will see more details concerning the location of the "problem" . Posting these details will help the Forum help you , if/when you have a problem . Here is a link to Maurice Joyce's tried and tested method of dealing with Java problems :- http://secunia.com/community/forum/thread/show/302... If you use the search facility at the top of the threads page , you may save time by helping yourself , otherwise , don't hesitate to ask . let us know how you get on .

Thank you Anthony for your quick response. On another Forum that I belong to (www.steelguitarforum.com) I was advised to check the path of the INSECURE listing. Lo and Behold the path pointed to (D) drive, where I had saved a bunch of stuff before I upgraded to Win7. So I simply deleted the entire Java folder, closed down Secunia, and almost immediately Secunia sent up it's alert flag and said basically that a threat had been removed and that things are now at 100% secure. |
