Well, out of the blue I notice that I have an update available… and I see it’s java… but it actually seems like the udpate was done by java, not windows update (which is what I thought was popping up when I first saw a message about updates). So does this answer the eternal question of whether or not sun’s java installation can update itself now (without having to wait for jdk 1.6 aka java 6000 or whatever they come up with for a new name). It was labelled like a beta upgrade though, so the real question is should it have told me there was an update, or should it have waited until a final version to bug me about it.
not sure what version java you are using, if its 1.5 (5.0) then theres a update for that, that just came out a few days ago, its only minor bug fixes.
Yeah, I just thought I’d mention it because this particular update feature had been broken since it was originally introduced.
