Looks like the website iphonedevsdk was responsible for serving up the malware that's been causing some of the recent security exploits. According to my browser history, I visited that site back in December. I've had Java turned off in my browsers since forever, but I do have it installed in the OS (OS X 10.8). I did install the security update from Apple yesterday (2/19).

If Java is turned off, it is unlikely that a Java exploit could have hit you as it would have first had to exploit the browser in to executing Java despite being off. It is worth clarifying that Java and JavaScript are not at all related though and verify that it is in fact Java that you have disabled. |
