Re: Howto update (security patches) Java on Windows 8

["Ryan" <randomrhythm () rhythmengineering com>]

Here is the vendor link I use to remember how to grab the MSI:

http://www.java.com/en/download/help/msi_install.xml

And of course the manual download link:
http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

My experience is by default it will remove old versions of the same major 
version as the installer.
