Please do a full scan with Spybot S&D.
If it does not find any supposed to be Java files this is probably a TeaTimer FP.
If there is still doubt please send in the files in question to detections@spybot.info, please remember to link this thread in your email.
I just did a full scan and nothing was found however teatimer deleted javaw.exe and on the day of the incident. Do you want me to try update java again and then do a full scan?

If you are using Java you should update it, since exploits are actively used.
In that case please redo the full scan.
Very few websites use Java, so disabling it in the browser is recommended.
Some software like the Eclipse IDE or LibreOffice do use the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). If you do not have any software requiring the JRE, it is safer to uninstall it.
Just reinstalled java 6 update 39 and spybot found nothing. Does this confirm that it was a false positive? I just want to know that I don't have a keylogger and if I did would teatimer had got rid of it?Originally Posted by Yodama
Thanks for all the help btw.
May i ask, why you did not install the latest Version of Java (Jave 7 update 13) since it will include newer fixes.
If the full scan did'nt find anything, i would say, its almost sure, its a false-positiv.
I re-intalled java 6 update 39 to see if teatimer was going to flag it again.
So I guess we can confirm it was a false positive?
yes, we can assume that this was a random TeaTimer false positive.
Please make sure to install the latest version of Java just like bbnetwork proposed.
If you don't need Java SE 6 for some special purpose it is recommended to install the latest version of Java SE 7.
