Sun Java 2 Runtime Environment 1.5.0 Update 7(1.5.0.07)
Why does one need the latest update in Sun Java 2 Runtime Environment 1.5.0 Update 7? I see that it is now available. Exactly what does this program do that requires it being updated? And is your computer at risk because it is not updated from the previous 6 version?
I hope that these question are not considered too basic for a response. Thanks, Red Boy

I do the Java updates routinely. Just watch out for the auto load of the Google Toolbar. Java is needed for some website info to be displayed. MS can't include Java's Virtual Machine any longer so you need to install it yourself. Always best to keep things updated cuz the hackers like to find holes to exploit.

Thanks, Panama Red. You have answered my questions. I just downloaded and installed update 7 and uninstalled update 6. Everything went well.
Thanks again, Red Boy |
