Concerned about Maleware. How to disable Java??? PLEASE HELP!

I hard there has been a Maleware problem and I heard that Apple released a Java Patch. I never got the update. I decided to find it on Apple's website and download and install it. Was it going to Dis able Java, Disable JavaSCript, etc. Here is a picture: file://localhost/Users/ilovecomputers/Desktop/Java%201.png

JavaScript and Java, despite the unfortunate similarly in names, are not related. Just uncheck Java. If you use other web browsers as well, open Oracle's Java Control Panel (you can access it via the Java pane in the System Preferences), go to the Security pane, and uncheck "enable Java content in the browser" option there as well.


Regards.
