I did what you said. Deleting tools and clear restore points went smoothly.
Though, I downloaded and ran the tool to remove the old java version, but when I look at the control panel, it still sits there: Java ™ 6 update 26.
Besides, I didn’t manage to open the java control panel as explained in the link you mentioned. I click on start, then control panel and then… what do I do? The only way I know how to see java there is through “program” and “modify/uninstall” but that doesn’t open any java control panel.
Finally, I was surprized to read the trouble about Java and your advice to disable it. Over the years, I learnt this is one of those programs you need to download and update to browse the internet or files smoothly even though you don’t officially know you’re using it (mmm… phrased in non-geek words). Did I get it wrong or is it that the recent attacks changed that?
I’ll be running the PC a while and will let you know if something is wrong.
thanks for your help,
Yveline
