Out of curiosity I tried that. Took about 30sec for the box to become occupied - and then it filled with maybe 13 different jre versions. Looks as though when the jre updates, it doesn't remove old versions. In this case, OOo seems to be using 1.5.0_04, although the latest is 1.6.0_05. Should it be safe (always??) to use the latest with OOo? And anyway, what's with keeping all the old versions?
