My experience doesn't fair much better. I get a UAC dialog every time I
launch windows to allow the update checker to run, pretty poor since it's a
security issue if you don't update.

Subject: [OT] Java Updates

 

I use IE browser and some XML utilities (eg, Stylus Studio) that use JRE and
somehow I have the two annoying services Java Update Checker + Java Update
Scheduler that have no idea of how to deal with Windows security. Every
update attempt on my Win7 Standard User system fails, if I let it proceed. 

My solution is to uninstall the 32-bit and 64-bit applications (currently
Java 6 Update 24), then download the updates from Oracle and manually
install them. 

Does anyone else have a better experience / a better solution?
