Oracle SunJava Update

Posted on 10:53 AM by Unknown
java

Oracle SunJava released an update to Java Runtime Environment (JRK).  The full internal version number for this update release is 1.6.0_23-b05 (where "b" means "build"). The external version number is 6u23.

This is not a security update.  The next security update is scheduled for 18 January 2011.  Rather, the update contains enhancements, described as follows:


  • Improved performance and stability
  • Enhanced support for right-to-left languages

Although Java is not required (See Do You Need Java?), if you do have Java installed on your computer, it is advisable to install the latest update. 

Download Update: Java SE Runtime Environment 6u23


Note: UNcheck any pre-checked toolbar and/or software options presented with the update. They are not part of the software update and are completely optional.

Please check add/remove programs to ensure that you have uninstalled all prior (and vulnerable) versions of SunJava.
