Java Plug-In's SSV Helper 2, Start Detector - are not Verified

843798Oct 29 2008 — edited May 9 2009
I have the following Internet Explorer Add-ons relating to Java...

I had an old version of Java, something like 1.5 or 1.15 ? - it was from 2006... then i installed the latest version of java from the official java website (where i had to say yes to installing add-ons / active-x controls even before the download begun)... my new version is Java version 6 update 10, (build 1.6.0_10-b33). i think i uninstalled the old version of java first.. it left some files in its installation directory so i manually deleted them after i had installed the new version though, it had its own folder with the version number as its name, a different folder for each version.

These are the java plug-ins i have...

Java(tm) Plug-In 2 SSV Helper (Not verified) Sun Microsystems, Inc. jp2ssv.dll
Java(tm) Plug-In SSV Helper Sun Microsystems, Inc. ssv.dll
JQSIEStartDetector Impl Class (Not verified) Sun Microsystems, Inc. jqs_plugin.dll

i guess the SSV Helper (the first one, not 2) was the old version of java.. and the other two are the new version.

My question, why are they not verified, is this normal, a danger/problem... considering the old java version add-on is verified.

Also what do these add-ons do?, are they needed.

thanks.

I have windows xp home.sp3??? - its fully auto updated... internet explorer 7.
