Apple on Tuesday updated both Java and its web browser Safari for users of OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and higher. The updates now allow users to enable the Java web plug-in on a site-by-site basis, as opposed to the "active" or "inactive" options it has had. Following a spate of serious issues, Apple forcibly disabled the Java plug-in because of malicious, in-use threats -- though users can reactivate Java once they've updated. In addition, the company updated its printer drivers for Epson, HP and Canon printers.
