I just read this and was coming to ask about it. I have disabled Java.

Oracle has issued an emergency fix for its Java software, which security experts said is being exploited to carry out identity theft and other crimes — but flaws remain which can still be exploited, researchers say.
The fix, available from the Oracle website, is intended to block an exploit in Java from running in web browsers, which the US Department of Homeland Security said was being "actively exploited".
The new fix from Oracle, which updates Java to Java 7 update 11 (known as 7u11) sets the default Java security settings to "high", so users are prompted before their systems will run Java applets from an unknown source — as a hacker's code would be.
