To many users who have complained about a Java update leaving older, security-vulnerable versions in place and accessible (unless manually uninstalled), Sun appears to have been listening From a Sun website regarding JRE 1.6.10: java.sun.comjavase6do reUpdate The JRE can now be installed in two configurations: patch-in-place and static. JRE updates may be configured to patch a pre-existing installation or do a brand new installation.. Patch-in-place configuration The patch-in-place mode implies that when a version of the JRE exists on a machine, any updates belonging to the same JRE family will be done in place, meaning, the existing JRE will be patched with changes. Instead, it updates the pre-existing c:Program FilesJavajre6 directory with the new 6u14 content. Static configuration When a JRE is installed in the static mode, it will not be updated in place by newer versions. A later version of the same JRE family will be installed in a separate directory. This mode ensures that vendors, who require a specific version of the JRE for their product, can be certain that the JRE will not be overwritten by a newer version. This seems to indicate that for version 1.6.10 and all subsequent versions, the installation option will exist at each update to automatically replace earlier versions back to and including 1.6.10. This still will leave anything older than 1.6.10 in place, but over time, the uninstalled old-version Java problem that has led a number of users to experience malware penetrations should now start to diminish. Why is there an INTERNAL updater if it doesnt work Doesnt the internal updater remove the earlier version What is the internal updater for Is it only there to tell you there is a new version available and to tell you to remove the old version (which usually is impossible to do) or what It says I have the latest version. Supposedly, if I had allowed it it would fetch the new version and install it all silently. ![]() I have never needed any form of Java except for Java speedtests. So, if it is well known that the internal updater doesnt work, I wouldnt know that probably. I agree that the installuninstall stuff with SunJava has always been a mystery.
