Java 8 Update 91

If you visit the main Java page and click the Free Java Download button, it will give you Java 8 Update 91. That version was just released, along with Java 8 Update 92. The difference?

This is Java we’re talking about here; since it’s still a popular target for malicious activity, if you use a browser with Java enabled, you should update the Java plugin right away. It’s also a good idea to configure the plugin as ‘click-to-play’. It’s an even better idea to disable it completely, if that’s an option for you.
