JavaRa
Old versions of Java have vulnerabilities that malicious sites can use to infect your system.JavaRa HomepageUse
What JavaRa does is to check if your computer has the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE). If the version you have installed has been superseded by a newer version the program will download and install this newer version for you, by running Java’s update program. JavaRa then allows you to remove all possible older versions of this program.
This will ensure that the security of your computer is enhanced and extra space on your hard disk is created.
Cleaning feature
In some instances Java Runtime Environment (JRE) will create logs or temporary files which are not needed in normal circumstances. These files take up space and can be safely removed. JavaRa does this tedious job for you with one click of a button.
Simply select the "Remove Useless Files" button once in a while to remove these old useless files.
Windows Versions Supported
The newest release of JavaRa supports Windows 9x, 2K, XP, Vista, 7 and 8.
The legacy version of JavaRa supports Windows 9x, 2k, XP, and Vista without UAC.
