Note that Apple has not chosen to patch (yet, hopefully) to the
current security releases and updates to Java. All of Apple's
supported Java installations have multiple security issues in them.
Some of these issues are in active exploitation in the Windows world,
and its only a matter of time before we see attempts against/on OS X.
By my count, we're at 30+ days from Sun's release and still waiting
for Apple to catch up.

It looks like it's Java 1.5.0_13, authored by Apple, for both Intel
and PPC 10.4.11 and Intel 10.5.2. (I checked on a Mac Pro and
XServe G5 running 10.4.11 and a MacBook Pro running 10.5.2) You can

This is a fire drill request, I needed it before I got to work.
