Java Malware/Trojan virus deep in the programming

[Kingfisher]

I was told today, there is a Java Trojan in the code itself, waiting for an exploit then it becomes a ransom virus.

AKA: Send money to this address or we'll wipe your hard drive.

I actually had it. Turn off Java and run virus sweep. Leave Java off until it's fixed.

For Firefox users go to Tools/Add-Ons then scroll down and turn off both Java adds.
