Why download Java?

Java technology allows you to work and play in a secure computing environment. Upgrading to the latest Java version improves the security of your system, as older versions do not include the latest security updates.

Java allows you to play online games, chat with people around the world, calculate your mortgage interest, and view images in 3D, just to name a few.

Options available in the Java Update Needed dialog

Java versions below Java 7 Update 25 (7u25) will show the message Your Java version is insecure, rather than Your Java version is out of date.

• Update
  Selecting this option will open the web browser to java.com to get the latest Java.
• Block
  If you select this option, the Java plug-in will be blocked in the browser until you update to the latest version of Java.
• Later
  By selecting this option, the Java plug-in will continue to load. The security settings will dictate if the application will be allowed to run.
• Do not ask again
  If this check box is selected, the Java Update Needed message will not be displayed again until the next release is available. Java updates are made available throughout the year. At a minimum, security updates are released 4 times a year. Non-security releases are made available additionally as necessary.

Message formatting varies based on operating systems.

Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows 8

Windows XP

Why am I always redirected to Java.com when visiting a page with a Java application?

The continual redirection to java.com was a known issue affecting Java versions 7u25 and older. This issue is fixed as of 7u40 release of Java.
Install the latest Java version 
To prevent the redirect to java.com, download Java version 7u40 or higher from http://java.com 

Why do I see the 'Java version is out of date' dialog when the option to Check for updates Automatically is deselected in the Java Control Panel?

The option to Check for updates Automatically in the Java Control Panel only prevents update checks on a weekly and monthly basis. Deselecting this option will not prevent the dialog from being seen if the Java version installed is out of date.
