ricede macrumors regular May 12, 2015 #2 I have used it with my bank a/c and it doesn't seem to be a problem. Why do you think that it is not safe ?

Because I have to enable JavaScript in order to browse, and Java presents a serious security risk... 😕 Oh, Last question about Safari, is possible to install the Adblock Plus extension?

ricede macrumors regular May 13, 2015 #4 I have javascript enabled on my mac. No problem. I do NOT have java installed. Apple no longer bundles java with mac OS's. If you really need it you have to download & install it yourself. Java & javascript are 2 different things. I cant say i understand it very well but there are explanations on Google if you want to look it up. I don't know about AdBlock plus. I use AdBlock which is different, but it works very well. ( not sure why their names are so similar )

Came Click to expand... Always confusing - Java, and Javascript, except for the name java, are not related to each other in any way. Adblock Plus should not be a problem with your Safari. Just go to the Extensions gallery, and add it to your Safari.
