Is it okay to uninstall the Java Environment stuff from Add or Remove Programs?
Well, you only need one, so if you have multiple ones, you can uninstall them all but the latest one. Just be sure to leave the most recent one - Java6 update 2. Otherwise, you won't be able to view certain sites correctly. But, you can certainly uninstall all the older versions - you only need one.
Reply:you could but i have found out t hard way it doesn't run properly
Reply:No keep Java on. You need it if you browse the web and run into any java applets
Reply:I think that depends. U may install Java Enviroment 'cauz it's necessary for some softwares like azureus, if that is the condition, u may uninstall that software %26amp; java and find an alternative which can works out without Java. And for the browsers plugins stuff, mozilla firefox and opera has their own plugins for java and should not occupy such space in disk.
Reply:Do not "uninstall" JAVA. You computer needs it to run properly when its on the internet.





Most all web pages require some form of JAVA to display properly.
Reply:Yes you could uninstall it from Add or Remove Programs... But, if you do this many features on many sites will be disabled. You may see text instead of where a picture should be on some sites. Especially game sites, game sites would give you a big problem if your not running java.








Edit: If i were you i would uninstall all of your java features then go on java.com or something like that site not sure if that one is correct and download the latest version of java.
Reply:It could affect it. It depends on the sites you visit (and what non-web related software you use that depends on Java)
