That has an effect on apps that help you remove their garbage.
#Do i need java 8 update 31 and 45 software#
If you don't notice a check box to disallow the installation of the adware attached to software you've downloaded (if they even give you an option), you legally agree to its installation. The whole adware industry works on that same principle. You don't tell me what software I can and can't have on it. I'm beginning to run into the occasional site the pops up a notice that in order to use the site properly, I must disable my ad blocker extension. There used to be a check box to give the user the option of skipping the non Java add-ons.Įven web sites are getting on the "protect the people paying our bills" bandwagon. They must have changed it since I last looked to make the third party people paying them to add their stuff to the installer happy. Then open the Java applet in the System Preferences to turn on the check box to suppress sponsor offers.
The next time you launch Safari, Yahoo! will be gone and your home page will be back to whatever you set. It literally does just what it says, which is nothing more than change the home page in Safari's preferences to Yahoo!.Īll you have to do is change the Homepage back to where you had it before (or blank if that's what you had), close the preferences and Safari. Good news though is that the add-on message is very clear. Then the next time you launch Safari, its default home page becomes Yahoo!. The change to add Yahoo! doesn't happen until you run Java from the System Preferences after installing it. When you first launch Safari, nothing changes.

As expected, it now sees the user account as a new install and I get the message to add Yahoo! I then ran the current Java 8 installer from Oracle. I then put both java plist files in my user account in the trash, along with the Java Internet plug-in and the Java PreferencePane, then deleted them. With the check box off, the string will change to false. This is the key controlled by the check box for the System Preferences > Java option, Suppress sponsor offers…. So that of course means yes, disable sponsor offers. The entry in particular in that file is the last key,, which as the next line says, is set to true for me. Just to back up a bit first, the file that controls whether or not you see sponsored add-ons during the install is in the Preferences folder of your user account. I uninstalled Java and its preference files so I could see what it currently does.
