Manage updates with the Download AppPublisher's Description
From Sun Microsystems:
The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) provides the libraries, the Java Virtual Machine, and other components to run applets and applications written in the Java programming language. In addition, two key deployment technologies are part of the JRE: Java Plug-in, which enables applets to run in popular browsers; and Java Web Start, which deploys standalone applications over a network. This is the official Java Download from Sun Microsystems.
Java Runtime Environment is in the Other Browser Add-ons & Plug-ins category of the Browsers section.

"again, just required software"
Version: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7
Pros
No particular pros
Cons
Backwards compatibility is poor. Enterprise web apps break with new releases.
Summary
Meh.
You need it.
Sometimes it breaks stuff -
"Works fine"
Version: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7
Pros
Runs all apps I have tried, not asking you to update Java every week!
Cons
Google Chrome thinks its out of date. Still some bugs that need worked out.
Summary
Does what its supposed to, some bugs and still beta. Don't think you should download Java if you don't need it as it is a virus magnet.

"never tried never will no need to :)"
Version: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7
Pros
not known yet
Cons
Not know yet or ever will be
Summary
Save the hassles and go with the best browsers out there loads 200 X faster then firefox or googles and nicer also Maxthon3 out performs the top 5 browsers by far LOVE IT
I just like the fact it loads instantly and works on all my games problem free firefox and googles both quit on me last night firefox to to buggy and googles took forever for pages to load or white pages same with Opera and Safari if Opera never had white pages on my game I probably woulda went with them but I think Maxthon3 is better then all 4 to tell you the truth -
"Works as expected, which is to say, it works fine."
Version: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7
Pros
It's pretty much invisible, and has run everything thrown at it.
Cons
None that I've encountered - no news is good news.
Summary
As might be expected from one of the most highly-respected software pioneers,Sun Microsystems continues to refine the Java environment. A fine program.

"I'd give it half a star if I could"
Version: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7
Pros
None that I can evaluate
Cons
Doesn't install
Summary
Doesn't matter if the download manager tries running online from the website or in stand-alone on the desktop - it doesn't run. Continually get a message stating my internet connection must be down, try again. Just as an FYI, I'm a senior sysadmin for almost 20 years with a direct fiber-connect to an insanely tricked-out desktop machine. V.6 is just fine, thought I'd give V.7 a go for yuks - oh well.

"cnet wont provide you java offline installer"
Version: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7
Pros
Java Runtime Environment 7.0 offline standalone installer can be found at domain s0ftpedia-d0t-c0m who offering for both 64bit and 32bit but cnet only offering java7 for 32bit only and java7 for 64bit cant be found here around.
Cons
internet connection is required if you were running java installer downloaded from cnet.
Summary
java from cnet contains adware asking your permission whether or not to install cnet toolbar. this is online installer i warn you just in case if you are looking for offline installer. offline installer do not require internet connection because they are standalone installer!
