Java and Safari issues after updating to Mac OS X v10.3.9

Java Applet problems on Safari, Apple provides a fix

Please see apple's KB for more info: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301380 

The Mac OS X 10.3.9 Update increased the size of certain internal libraries, causing a mismatch between the shared archive of the Java classes and the addresses used by the Java virtual machine. Reinstalling Security Update 2005-002 is an easy way to force the shared archive to be recreated, which fixes the problem, even though the issue is not security related.

 After updating to Mac OS X 10.3.9, some systems may have issues with Java applications and Java-enabled websites when using Safari. Safari may unexpectedly quit, and standalone Java applications may unexpectedly quit or not launch.
