<br>
I've been trying to avoid using java since all these problems have been happening with security. I've actually uninstalled it on all my Windows machines. However, there are a few web apps which require it.<br>
<br>
I was running a mint 13 vm in virtualbox. It has the default java system, which I believe is openjdk 6. I go to <a href="http://java.com" target="_blank">java.com</a>, click do I have java?, then verify java version. It crashes and locks up not only the tab in firefox but essentially the whole browser. It also locks up when I try to access the web app I'm wanting to use. Anybody know why it would do that? Is there any alternative other than installing Oracle Java?<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
