How to completely stop autodownloading or prompting to update java versions?

We are having an issue with people still getting prompted to update their java when they go to a website requiring a higher version of java. We need to control when updates happen. The admins have run the script below to remove the update tab. It stopped the updates that would normally run but does not stop the prompts. What does the JRE Autoupdate option in Java Control Panel do?
