What in the world is Java Web start.../.java... and what do I need them for... If I delete them what will I be facing on my machine? Must I have them to make something else important work, if so; what? I notice I need to get ride of some things on here to make more room, could this be a victim of my demise?
Upon your answering, pretend this is Computers for Dummy's, I wont be offended!

If you are having disk space problems, try ccleaner, it's free and does a nice job cleaning up trash.

To prevent java and various "helpful" programs from running, download Mike Lin's
startup control panel. It is also free, and very useful:

Run it and uncheck all the boxes except your antivirus and antispyware software. Your computer will start up faster and run more smoothly without all the rubbish running. If you find you cannot live without something, you can just check the box again.

Java web start is just a program that helps your other programs keep updated on the internet as far as I can see. also if you watch movies online, you might require this program. If it isnt hassling you, dont delete it as you might do something to another application that you have.

no you dont need java web start, its just a little gift they hope you'll need more java software. make a restore point with system restore, then delete it. in case something gos amiss, go back to the restore point. for more help with restore, look in windows help
