ts a security patch, and an important one
- but do be aware that some 'experts' still rate this Java as 'flawed'. I have gone back to disabling in the browsers until all this kerfuffle settles down. I see quite a few Java based sites offering 'alternatives' like Flash' (again, not guaranteed perpetually safe) and have not encountered a problem.
I have a friend locally who's business is based on a large security prog written in Java. I wonder what the future holds?
