Sun / Oracle wants me to purchase some sort of "Java for Business"
product in order to give me download access to JRE 5.0 Update 23.

Anyone know of a working download URL for this update?

Probably no place, http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
shows they do not support 5.0 for "normal" customers anymore. As you
can see in the 1st paragraph, update 22 is the last public release.

You actually have a use case where update 22 isn't good enough?

Do you update your JRE when security patches become available?

Why would that be any different for these patches for version 5?

And I think we're now up to version 5, update 25.  Why is Sun/Oracle not
making them freely available?

I tried to look for information to "buy" Java for Business, but can't
get any coherent information out of Sun / Oracle about this (price,
etc).  Most of their web-links don't even work.
