JAVA Runtime Environment = Safe or Not Safe ???
I have a program that I want to install that says it requires JRE Version 7 or later.
Sometime ages ago, I purged anything JAVA from our machines and have thus far been careful to avoid it; I don't really know why; it just seemed like the smart thing to do at the time.
I Google-searched the situation, but all of the info that I came up with was 2013 or earlier and only led to confuse me further, what with JAVA this and JAVA that.
Is it currently safe to install this JAVA Runtime Environment; where do I safely download it; and, which is the latest version ?
Or, should I just forget the new program (and a couple others that I have that will not work without it) ?
Thanks for reading and all help is appreciated.
