Homeland Security warns to disable Java amid zero-day flaw | ZDNet

New Java vulnerability is being exploited in the wild, disabling Java is currently your only option - The Next Web

EDIT - I'm an idiot. Java is not the same as JavaScript. Ignore me.

JavaScript is a standard tool in any cracking attempt.
However, I believe you have mixed up JavaScript and Java, which are two different programming languages. Java is more useful in designing object-oriented code and makes up many functions. JavaScript is used directly in website HTML, but is only used for more minor coding.
The US gov't is saying to disable Java, not JavaScript. Don't disable JavaScript.
It's also why Java is targeted so much- the language is becoming more and more integrated as it works on many platforms, and so is used more and more commonly.
Zero-day flaw- where the crackers find a computer vulnerability and use it before anyone else knows about it and tries to patch it.

I did mix up Java and JavaScript. My bad.

Check it more carefull, and then you should find out more problem about it.
