Experienced computer users might guess that the process is related to Java and that is the case indeed. Jqs.exe is the Java Quick Starter which was designed to improve the startup time of Java applets and applications by prefetching Java Runtime Environment (JRE) files frequently into memory. That’s mainly interesting for users who work with Java on a day to day basis. Everyone else might be better of disabling the Java Quick Starter. Think of a user who encounters one Java applet per month (or week), would it make sense to run the process all the time because of those few instances where it might start the application or applet faster? (see also Java Portable on how to use a portable version of Java on the computer)

Jqs.exe is definitely querying the Windows Registry for instance. The performance increase might not be huge but you will free up some computer memory and some I/O processes on the computer system.

How to disable JQS.exe

Now, if you want to disable the Java Quick Starter process you can do that in the Windows Control Panel. You find a Java entry there which will open the Java Control Panel.

A click on Advanced and the selection of Miscellaneous will display the activated Java Quick Starter entry. Uncheck the box to disable the process. This will be visible in the Windows Task Manager immediately.

Update: Several commenters mentioned that using the Java Control Applet to disable jqs.exe will only disable the program from running for the logged in user. Another method to disable the Java background process is more appropriate for multi-user systems:

You need to press Windows-R, type in services.msc and hit enter. This opens the Windows Services configuration window. Locate the Java Quick Starter service from the listing and right-click it.

Select Properties from the menu, this opens a new window with details about the process.

Click on the Stop button to stop the Java Quick Starter button and thus jqs.exe from running in the current session. You also need to change the startup type from automatic to disabled to prevent that it is loaded on the next start of the Windows operating system. Once done click Apply and then Ok to close the window.

Google Authenticator is new plugin that quietly slipped into the WordPress repository last month. So far it’s only had 142 downloads. This plugin gives you multifactor authentication using the Google Authenticator app for Android, iPhone, and Blackberry.

Google Authenticator allows you to enable the multifactor authentication requirement on a per user basis. For example, you might enable it for your administrator account but login as usual with less privileged accounts. Here’s what the enhanced login box will look like with the plugin installed:

The Google Authenticator plugin adds settings to the Profile and Personal options page for setting the secret key and displaying the QR code:

You’ll get a screen similar to this on your mobile device with the Google Authenticator app:

The Google Authenticator verification codes are time based, so you’ll need to be aware of that when using this plugin. Also, your PHP installation will need the SHA1 & SHA256 hashing algorithms.

You can download the Google Authenticator plugin for free from the WordPress plugin repository.

Recent security scares have got me wondering – is it time to think about multifactor authentication as a standard for WordPress sites? What’s your opinion? Will you be adding more layers of security to your site?
