open source/ secure alternatives to java and mcrsft programs?
for the life of me i cant seem to fix the vulnerabilities of java and mcrsft excel, word, powerpoint. i download the recommended patches, but upon rescanning my computer for vulnerabilities these same programs are lined up for recommended fixing. can i remove all these progs and install something different? secure and maybe open source?
Try open office

thats just for microsoft word, exel, etc.
can’t do much about java
Unfortunately Java is not safe and secure no matter what you do with it. Java is like a cookie jar for a hacker because of what it can do.
