Many drive-by installs happen directly through your browser - even if you don't click to download anything.
So update Java, and remove old versions

Good info, thanks
I checked this page for older versions:
http://www.java.com/en/download/uninstall.jsp
and indeed I have one from 2007 on there. Look in Settings/Control Panel/Programs and Features to see if any old versions of Java exist or go to the above page and it will tell you:
"We have detected the following old versions of Java that are installed on your system:
* Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 1
These should be removed to ensure your system security."
Cool beans.
