Thanks. I read up a bit on JRE 6 and I'm a tad concerned that some of my
programs are configured to my current version of Java. The help notes did
say
that any 'problems' were considered as bugs so I reckon I could deal with
that but ther was also a warning about not overwriting ezisting java apps.
I
don't want to keep saying this but my computing skills are limited at
present
and although I'mkeen to learn/progress I don't want to get in out of my
depth
and drown.

Yes, the update is a Security Update, amongst others.
Re-read my follow-up post and implement is, ASAP.
