Sun Microsystems has released a security update to its Java software. Since cyber criminals have a history of targeting Java vulnerabilities, and because at least 800 million computer users have some version of Java installed, it’s probably time for most readers to update this program. Sun’s release notes are somewhat light on details, saying Sun Java 6.0 Update 11 contains fixes for one or more security vulnerabilities. Not sure whether you have Java or the latest version installed? Check out this link. Windows users can grab the latest version by opening the Windows Control Panel, clicking the Java icon, and then visiting the “Update” tab and clicking “Update Now.” After you begin the update process, note that unless you want the Yaboo! toolbar also installed, you’ll need to uncheck that option before proceeding with the rest of the install. Other OS users can find the update by following this link.
