When you need to Update Java, make sure you do it from the java.com website (yes, there is the auto update on my machine but I am a paranoid person of questionable parentage). IMO, do NOT use any "update" options from a website that you may be on.
At time of posting I am on the current Version 7 Update 65. On a recent website it was wanting me to update to v7 u60 (some want an even older update). Some of these sites have a modified Java version that installs nefarious software on your machine.
Ergo, only update from java.com or use the
Check For Updates that is in the Start Menu if you have Windows 7. Don't know where to find that option on Windows 8/8.1 but if you add a Classic Shell applet you will have a Windows 7 menu.
