Outdated programs (in AVG TuneUp) or Software Update (in AVG PC TuneUp) may repeatedly report that Java 6 or Java 7 software is outdated and that your computer is vulnerable to risks, even if you have already installed the latest version of Java. This happens because the older version of Java is not automatically uninstalled when you install a newer version, and AVG will continue to report outdated Java until the older version is fully removed. As Oracle no longer supports Java 6 or Java 7, we strongly recommend uninstalling these versions and updating your Java by following steps in this article.
