Its really wierd but I allowed java access using my sygate firewall, but it keeps popping up as blocked....any ideas?

one thing u can do is to check ur traffic log
if java is blocked by sygate, the incident can be found in that log

Please be kind to the noobs...we were once them after all
I see it in the log....it blocks quite a lot whilst on the forum presumably from sigs etc. I dont know how to enable it tho as I didn't block it in the first place......this is soooooo irritating!
if you right click on the sygate icon in the task bar you will get a pop up giving you different options then left click on applications this will show you what applications have been allowed blocked or ask permission . so if you look for java in there you should be able to click on the java line and allow it to run .
hope that helps you baccyman
does java need access? Im pretty sure its just a interpreter. generally firefox/ Ie will download the applet and give it to java to run.
might just be the jvm looking to see if there are any updates.
I just looked....and it says java is allowed...so I am even more confused.....Originally Posted by baccyman
Oh and when I click the box to 'not show this again' it makes no difference....
I dont think so...as it does it when on the board...sometimes 5 or 6 times during a session.....Originally Posted by 4play
which version of java are you using windows or sun because if you do a scan with trendmicro antivirus scanner that shows that there is a virus with older versions of windows java . i dont know if this is affecting your computer.

Have you run a virus check? There's a slim chance it could be a trojan masquerading as a familiar program.
I can't see why you'd need java at all on this forum so it's a mystery as to why it keeps popping up.
We can't stop here... this is bat country
