Update to 7.0.55

Changelog:
JavaFX Release Notes
JavaFX is now part of JDK. JDK 7u55 release includes JavaFX version 2.2.55.

New Features and Changes
The frequency of some security dialogs has been reduced on systems that run the \ 
same RIA multiple times.
See 8029649.

Using "*" in Caller-Allowable-Codebase Attribute.

If a stand-alone asterisk (*), or asterisk as part of a top level domain such as \ 
(*.org), is specified as the value for the Caller-Allowable-Codebase attribute, \ 
then calls from JavaScript code to the RIA will show a security warning. An \ 
option to remember the choice is also provided, and if the user selects the \ 
option to remember the choice to run the RIA, no further warning messages are \ 
shown for the same RIA, when run with JavaScript from the same source.

For more information, see JAR File Manifest Attributes for Security documentation.

See 8033707.

Disabling Sponsor Offers in the Java Installer

During the installation of Java, users may be presented with the option of \ 
downloading and installing sponsor offers, such as browser add-ons, or security \ 
software. With 7u55 and later releases of Java, sponsor offers can be bypassed \ 
entirely by using "SPONSORS=0" as an option, when installing Java via \ 
the command line:

    Manually download the 32bit online installer for 7u55 to your local machine.
    Click the Windows Start Button/Menu. From the available Menu choices, select \ 
the 'Search box' and enter the text "command" in it.
    A list of matches will appear. Select  'Command Prompt' from the available \ 
Programs list.
    Navigate to the folder containing the downloaded installer, e.g.:
    cd c:\Users\<username>\Downloads
    To start the installation, in the Command Prompt window type:
    jre-7u55-windows-i586-iftw.exe SPONSORS=0

The option to disable sponsors will persist across all future updates and \ 
re-installs of Java.

Note that sponsor offers, and therefore this functionality, is only applicable \ 
to online 32bit JRE installers and Auto Update mechanisms for the Windows \ 
operating system.
