Howdy,
The update description here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301382

describes the procedure for restoring the Java Shared Archive.
I am not an intensive Java user - just a plain vanilla few tabs mainly text surfer and don't use it otherwise.

Can someone geek condense the rather dense article into a recommendation whether to open Terminal or not please?


This will provide you with the current version of Java, if installed on your system.

The next part of the exercise will update your Java configuration in relation to Safari's problems. So, if this is an issue which one assumes it possibly is for most users then do the upgrade via software upgrade or the download, if it is not then do not do it.

Part two requires you choose which version, then run commands to clean up the archive so as to remove the errors or those creating the errors and then reset.

Their is also the Security Update in Software update, I have applied both and yes Java works slightly better than it did.

Cheers!
