Java update 2012-006 did not remove Java plugin from any browser
I successfully installed Java update 2012-006 via Software Update on my iMac running OS X Lion 10.7.5 (German) and it updated the Java runtime to version 1.6.0_37 and removed the Java Preferences application as expected, but it did not remove the Java plugin from any browser!
Safari and Firefox can still use the Java plugin as before.
I repaired permissions, rebooted, manually downloaded Java update 2012-006 and successfully installed it again without any change to the Java plugin: it is still present on my system and fully functional from any browser!
The web is full with messages from users missing the Java plugin after installing this update - but I could not find anything about the plugin not being removed!
Is anyone experiencing the same behaviour under Lion? I thought this would happen only under Snow Leopard...
What should I do now? Can I really trust this "successfull installation" of Java update 2012-006 on my system?
Thanks,
Michael
