Java.
Screw java, seriously.
There's a new version out every 2 weeks it seems like.
There's an entire division that has to scan documents using a stupid scanning program that REQUIRES java.
Every time java updates I have to go through and update the entire agency.
Thank god for PDQ Deploy.
Now if I could just figure out why some machines won't take the updates at night.
Probably users that turn their computers off.

I get java a lot too, with the "do you want to allow this program to make changes to your computer" dialog

It's very easy to gauge someone's intelligence based on whether they update java applications or not.

The top 2 reasons people get malware is through javascript and outdated adobe applications.

We disabled ads on our firewall completely. The amount of infected machines we have gotten since is a drop in the bucket compared to before. Frigging infected ads and morons that click everything are a bad combination.
