I may have said something like this a while ago but the folks at Talking Communities had better get off their butts and upgrade to be compatible with latest versions of java! Java security vulnerabilities are all over the place and range from Version 4 through current version 7. this is serious stuff and modifying your system to run some old outdated version of Java is a really bad idea! I would never do it for anything. The current advice out there these days is to disable java plugins completely on all your systems until Oracle gets around to fixing this. It sounds to me like Java security problems are rivaling those of Flash.
