Don't know for certain how i got the 2 viruses but other posts explain it is very common. Java gets infested through false web site updates so beware! The version I had the viruses on was the latest 1.6.0
AV said:
application data/sun/java/deployment/cache/6.0/31 trojan exploit!
Yahoo did not delete. Just informed. I deleted them (2) manually. IDX files.
I have uninstalled all versions of java.
Currently running 1.5.0.05 as advised by another post (early LW, early Java).
