Simply put, I have absolutely no apps that depend on JAVA and this is exactly why. As someone else said, the best solution is to removed JAVA entirely and never let it near your system again. Friends don't let friends install Java and we don't do windows
awesome grammar nazi troll. i was getting all excited and then it was suddenly as though you realized java isn't an acronym right before the end of your post.
You'd think they'd know better as they can often quote all sorts of statistical sort or database traversal, O(log n), big-o little-o, etc, but when you get them with a common sense thing about code performance issue, they appear to get some sort of temporary lobotomy.

you had me until here. what would the default search engine become? bing?
he's interested in whether it's blocked, not that it's blocked. if some people post here from the prc then he can assume it's not blocked in some places at some times, which presumably tells him more than he knew before asking his question.
