,Updated from .22 to .23
==Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 2223==
There are various versions of the installer:
* Those from a http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp which are aimed at developers or ISVs. We want the 'Windows Offline Installation' version with a filename of jre-6u226u23-windows-i586.exe. Also available here are 'Windows Online Installation' (jre-6u226u23-windows-i586-iftw-rv.exe) and 'Windows Kernel Installation' (jre-6u226u23-windows-i586-iftw-k.exe).
* Those from http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp which are aimed at consumers. The versions available here are 'Windows 7/XP/Vista/2000/2003/2008 Online' (same as the 'Windows Online Installation' above) (jre-6u226u23-windows-i586-iftw-rv.exe) and 'Windows 7/XP/Vista/2000/2003/2008 Offline' (not the same as the 'Windows Offline Installation' above) (jre-6u216u23-windows-i586-s.exe). In versions prior to update 19 or maybe 18 the installer filename ending in -s.exe tried to download the Google Toolbar so this may still be the case with this version.
"Java Quick Starter" is described as a prefetching service that should make java applications start faster. But it has a drawback: it must be killed before uninstallation or installation fails, and uninstallation via msiexec does not seem to be smart enough to do this.
==== JRE without Java Quick Starter on 32-bit hosts ====
The following installs JRE Update 22 23 and then removes the "Java Quick Starter" service; if you want to keep "Java Quick Starter" service then just remove the line with "jqs.exe -unregister", but remeber to stop/kill JQS before uninstallation.
