Nothing like a little negative publicity to light a fire under Apple Security's backside.  Today, Apple released a security patch for Java.  No restart required but you have to *gasp* shut down those browsers.

I just tried to install this, but just came up with a message saying that it was unable to update. I'm not bothered but kind of odd.
