Remove all versions of java.
Go here http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp
Install latest and greatest version.

Whenever updating java you must remove previous versions before install.

It's worthwhile keepingthe first of these up to date, but the others can be (and sometimes must be)treated differently.I currently have versions of 1.4.2 1.5 and 1.5 installed on this machine.  I'llhave a version of BEA's JRockit too, if I ever get around to installing it.    -- chris
