Java announcement that concern Pogo games


Oracle has released an important new security update for the Java software. This is meant to address many security concerns with the Java software. We recommend updating your Java today to address these concerns. You can Update your Java here: The latest version is Java 7 Update 25.


  1. Pogo Changes How We Detect Java
We have made some important changes to how we detect Java on your system before you start one of Pogo?s many Java games.
As of Tuesday June 18th, we have removed the Java detection that was run when you loaded a Pogo game page. For a lot of users, it often falsely detected missing Java, and in some rarer cases browser lockups and crashes.
As of this update, we will now only detect Java on your system after you have clicked on the ?Play Now? button or clicked to get into a game-room.  At this point we will attempt to detect Java on your system. If our Java detection fails, you will now see a new error page with information on installing the latest Java, enabling Java on your browser if it has been disabled.
Be aware that you will still see a Java security popup messages as the game is loading. If you click the check-box and click ?OK? it will allow the game to continue to load. This should only have to be done once per individual Java game on Pogo.
If Java detection does fail, you will be shown an error screen with helpful information on how to install the latest Java, how to update your Java and links to more Java troubleshooting and help.
We have include a poll the end of this article so you can let us know if this has improved you ability to play games on Pogo.  We have also left comments open on this article if you want to share your experience with the latest Java detection, especially if you are having new/different errors.
Here are a few Java games on Pogo you can try:
Lost Temple Poker
Bingo Luau
Hangman Hijinks
Yahtzee Party
