So, I know that the newest version of Java is update 16, but I also have this thing called SE Runtime Environment 6 installed, do I need it or can I remove it?
Here's what I'm talking about:
Also, for Adobe Flash Player, I uninstalled the ActiveX control, but I kept the plug-in, since that's pretty much the main thing. Do I still need the ActiveX?
Re: Java is confusing...please HALP ME IN CLARIFYING!
"Active X is a set of object-oriented programming (OOP) technologies and tools that Microsoft developed for Internet Explorer to facilitate rich media playback. Essentially, Internet Explorer uses Active X to load other software applications in the browser."

So from what this is telling me that -- If you use a browser other than IE, Active X isn't needed necessarily. But I recommend keeping it? Because it's not a huge program, it doesn't slow your computer down and you don't notice it. Besides, Java Tech uses Active X. So you need it anyway. :)
