If they're pushing java 7 update 4, then that's the one you should install.

How is your computer behaving now ?

Good, it looks like we've got it all now.

Time to remove the tools we've been using to clean your computer.

First

Let's clear out OTL and the files and folders it created. This should also remove SystemLook
  • Double click OTL.exe to launch the programme.
  • Click on the CleanUp! button.
  • OTL will download a list from the Internet, if your firewall or other defensive programmes alerts you, allow it access.
  • You will be prompted to allow the clean up procedure, click Yes
  • When finished exit out of OTL
  • Now delete OTL.exe (if still present).


Next

Please delete ....
