Java is need for things such as the chat room or the Find Opponents Notifier, which are separate applications that either run standalone or within a browser as a separate entity. JavaScript is a scripting language build into the browser itself which is scripts integrated with the webpages themselves. No new Java installation has influence on the JavaScripting, only a new or other browser.
My bad ...
But still - if I'm not mistaken - you can either dissable / enable Java Scripting and also affect it functionality in the browser's security settings and by assigning the specific web site to particular zone (not mentioning all the antivirus and / or firewall as well as add block applications ...)
