installing java without the web aspect?

i'd like to have the JDK/SDK on my machine, but don't want that coffee symbol to pop up when I got to some sites. I don't want web browsers to start running java. I don't want it in my taskbar. I don't开发者_开发问答 want it in the background.

I just want it for running some programs. javac a.java (enter) java a. That's it.

Is that possible? if so, how?

you just install it in standard way then you can configure all these from java control panel

Install the JDK (Java Development Kit), and refuse the option of installing the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) when asked by the installer.

Just right click on that icon once, and tell it to shut down automatic update checking permanently.
