Regarding the Java Deployment Toolkit vulnerability:
On Windows XP and later: open the Local Security Settings console and create
a prohibition rule for the path
 %HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Web
Start\1.6.0_19\HOME%/JAVAWS.EXE

Hmm ... presumably that would that need repeating for every later (and
older) Java release until the functionality is believed safe ?

Cheers
