Forgive me for asking, but why doesn't JD log a call with Apple Helpdesk and ask them what to do to restore either the previous Java update on Lion or Snow Leopard or try help identify the issues for JD?

Failing that, there are plenty of Mac users using JD, why not email Apple directly or log the issue with the 30+ Apple Support Blogs on the Net?

I have sent the issue to 3-4 already last weekend to get their attention... This issue to not alone to JD, lots of Gamers, Foxfire and others have issues also.
