NOT legit. This was happening to me on Chrome 2 weeks ago. That same advertisement. Didn't go away until I disabled live player which was a real bitch to do too. Thanks to that gaffer that helped me
 
That's totally legit joelseph. I think you might have scored and found one of the links that comes with some really rad bonus software and a free OS changer. Nice

Joke post? Joke post

Uninstall Java if you don't need it.

Otherwise, disable the Java plugin in your web browser.

Turn it on only when you are on a site that needs it (or use an alternative browser that has it enabled always)

Only ever get it from here: www.java.com
 
Seriously what's people's beef with java? I'm cs and we've just started working with Java so I am curious as to where the malice comes from.

For me, it's never seemed stable, it locks up browsers, has security holes, constantly asking for updates on desktop. I hate it, I now refuse to install it unless I get the hankering for MineCraft, which I then delete immediately after.

This looks really unprofessional.
Close it, and scan your computer for viruses and malware right away.



I snickered much more than I should have.

It's not from my computer. It's because an ad is attempting to redirect me to their shady site.
