Java Petition to remove AskToolbar

runiter
Hope it doesn't bother people that I'm posting this here but the Help forum gets more viewers and I think this is important.

For some time now Oracle has engaged in the practice of bundling AskToolbar and other 3rd party libraries with Java. This practice is hurting us as Java programmers as we get the blame if we ask our customers to install Java and mess up their system as a result.

If you agree, sign this petition to demand that Oracle remove AskToolbar from Java:

I agree with you, look at that. This thing is really annoying.

Great, thanks for sharing it on that site.
We need to get as many signatures as possible to prove to Oracle that people truly dislike AskToolbar and won't stay silent.

Unfortunately this practice of bundling software with 3rd party crapware is spreading fast. It's time to send a clear message.
