Java software allows you to run applications called 'applets' that are written in the Java programming language. These applets allow you to have a much richer experience online than simply interacting with static HTML pages.Java Plug-in technology, included as part of the Java 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (JRE), establishes a connection between popular browsers and the Java platform. Java allows applications to be downloaded over a network and run within a guarded sandbox. Torrent client portable macbook.

Java 6 Update 21

I was trying to upgrade Java 1.6.0 to the latest update 45. I first uninstalled the previous version (update 43), but this time for some odd reason the JDK installer (jdk-6u45-windows-i586.exe) does not install the 'Public JRE' as it normally does along with the JDK. It does not even list it as options (it only shows Development Tools and Source Code, but does not list 'Public JRE').When I thus subsequently tried to install the JRE separately (using jre-6u45-windows-i586.exe), I got the message that the JRE was already installed.So, for some odd reason the JDK installer (as well as the JRE-installer) seem to believe that JRE 1.6.0 update 45 is already installed while it is NOT.Any idea, how to convince it otherwise?This is on Windows 7 (x64 Enterprise) and with the 32-bit Java version (the 64 bit version installed fine as usual. I need both versions for test purposes just to avoid that question.).
