Make all plugins click to run. That way they di not use resources except when you need them.

I guess, you mean to disable it. But it still takes some resources. And there is NO use of Java for me (and most of computer users) then why to keep it on the system?

I have Java installed because I recently tried out some Java desktop apps, but I do not have a browser plugin.

I am not 100% sure but I think it will automatically install the plugin. I think the browser plugin is part of the installation. Check your browser to verify it.
