Java applications operate within a form of virtual machine or sand box, protecting your computer from the operations performed by the executed code... unfortunately, there are ways around every system, and you must always make sure that you run Java applets only from trusted sources.

Note: Java and Javascript are not the same thing, and Javascript can more easily be used to compromise your privacy and security without your knowledge.

Is there a java that doesn't change your computer?

Try downloading the latest version of java from oracle. Actually Java is simply a language. It is a tool. It should not change your computer. Something is wrong with your computer if Java changes your computer. Usually it is not Java changing your computer but a virus latching onto Java. You must keep your antivirus software up to date and you must keep your Java up to date or you will have problems. If you have a MAC, apple has stopped supporting Java. Hackers are using it to hack into computers. Update it from Oracle or get rid of it.
