How would I block it and do I really need to or is that overkill? (I'm just planning on using Java for Sigil. But I guess if Java's in the browser and I'm going online via the browser it might be good to block it.) |
If java tries to go outside to the internet Windows will pop up a dialog asking if you want to allow it. Just select whatever option it gives that allows access on your local network. Normally you won't ever see that dialog. The other direction, stuff coming in, can't do anything because you'd need to set up java to "listen" for incoming traffic.
