To put it simply I just want to keep Java updated. I recently used a program called "Scunia" to make sure my software was updated. 4 Java errors keep showing up. They are the same J2SE Runtime Environments. I notice in "add/remove" there are a total of 7. These 4 seem to be huge space hogs. Microsystems' descriptions are about as simple as college calculus. What can I unistall/do without ??
