Hi harry10

 

There have been a number of issues recently with Java. Please go to the Java web site here

 

http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp

 

Download and install the latest update.

Re: vmain.class trojan

I just had the same problem recently.

I got help and found a protection against this virus.

 

First, run Norton/AVG and scan the whole PC.

Then run Malwarebytes Full Scan.

The third step if you use Firefox is to use the addon called "Noscript", it just alloud java scripts which you choose.

So you wont get any Java virus again.

I had this same problem too. Ran a full scan with Norton on May 4th and it detected 2 instances of the vmain.class trojan, it quarantined and deleted them and I have not had the problem since then.
