I just wonder, why they are still distributing JRE 1.5.0_10 on www.java.com. I now use JRE 1.6.0 (JRE 6), which I downloaded together with the new Java Development Kit (JDK 1.6.0) from java.sun.com. I would like my user to update to JRE 1.6.0 also, but he shouldn't really have to download JDK 1.6.0 too, because he is just using the program and not a programmer. Are there anybody who knows, why they still have JRE 1.5.0_10 on www.java.com, and where JRE 1.6.0 can be downloaded without the JDK? -Maybe it's just a matter of days before java.com is updated, so JRE 1.6.0 can be downloaded?

URL:http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp> includes the bare JRE. Thanks, that solved my problem. But I still don't understand why www.java.com is distributing the 1.5.0_11 (today it's update 11 and not 10) version of the JRE. But ok, maybe JRE 6 (1.6.0) should be tested for some time before it should be made the default. Pete C _______________________________________________________ Free 'Mandriva Linux 2007' Linux OS!
