There is a Java update that is coming up today. It is Java 7 update 65. Java always wants to be your friend and install extra stuff. Today it is Ask search engine stuff, changing your home page, changing your default search and or a toolbar. Please uncheck(2nd screen) that so you don’t end up with stuff you don’t need or want. When it is done it will more than likely want to restore any security prompts(default option) after it installs. This means sites like Kronos will ask you to allow Java to run so make sure and check the “Allow and Remember” options and any other prompts to let it run on sites that use Java. If it is not a site you are sure about then don’t allow it to run. One of the first things it most likely do is take you to Java’s website to verify the install.

Partial network in Cooper Library – Level 2
We have a switch down on level 2 that is affecting network connectivity. The NOC is looking into it to get the problem resolved. We have no time frame for when this will be fixed.
login.clemson.edu fixed
login.clemson.edu has been restored to service. System Administrators have restored the service at 8:43 AM, April 25, 2014. However, you may need to clear the browser cache in order to access the websites.
Confirmation: Data Network Connectivity intermittent in Random Areas Around Campus and PSA Sites
The system that hands out IP addresses entered a degraded state sometime before 11:00 AM.
The symptoms that users may experience will be intermittent. Some computers, cell phones, and other network devices will receive an IP address and some will not.
Devices that can’t obtain an IP address have no way of communicating over the network.
Network Engineers are working to resolve the issue. As more information becomes available, updates will be provided.
Thank you for your patience.
