My understanding is, the problem is with the 1.7 version plugin for
the browsers. Standalone JRE is ok. OTOH, many folks have trouble
with the disable java buttons or aren't clear on the distinction
between the plugin and the runtime, so they're getting advice to
uninstall it completely. Which they may be unsuccessful at if they
don't understand why they are getting the advice in the first
place.
I suspect there's a whole lot of background procurement politics and
marketing FUD going on here as well. Once you've raised an alert
to orange, nobody wants to take responsibility for going back to
yellow.
