Wow! Sun is making progress...LOL
It installed pretty quickly, under 1 minute. Usually, it was taking at least couple of minutes.
It removed my older version, but I'm wondering....some people would have several older versions installed...curious, if it'll get rid of those, as well.

I think the toolbar is only included if you get Java through the Sun Download Manager.  I noticed it (MSN toolbar) when I was updating the wife's computer today.  You can, of course, opt out of it prior to installation.

Not sure on if it removes anything before v6u10 though.
I don't know how far back it goes, but my wife had 6u6 and the newest update didn't remove it.

I asked couple of user, while doing HJT logs, and it looks like it removes only Update 10. Maybe next updates will remove everything from Update 10, up.

I have my Vista machine set to auto-update and had this a request for Java to update popping up just about every day for weeks even though I HAD updated NUMEROUS times.  QUITE irritating.
                                                                                                                             What do y'all think about all these "updates", in general?  I don't trust 'em!!!  Why would I need to update every day?  And I hear ya about the tool bar "updates".  I used to be with AOL...  and then Yahoo...  and it seemed like they were constantly wanting to update stuff the I didn't think probably needed updating so I didn't go along with it if I could help it.  So...  What are they installing, anyway?
                                    I figured it could be summed up, somehow with "Follow the $$".
                                                                        THANKS!

Close all web browsers. Right click the Internet Explorer icon and choose Run as Administrator. Now visit www.java.com and download then install the new version.
