Java 6 exploit found in the wild

I've seen some machines where it tries to update with every release, and every release it fails with some cryptic error message, leaving the user on the old version. That can't be good for security.

Perhaps there's a reported bug for this, you could add a comment describing what you saw. If we report bugs in software then we're contributing to better software.

Ironically, the people reporting the bugs won't be able to automatically update to the new versions with the bug fix.
