Solution:
SUN is the only vendor who has chosen to respond and react to this vulnerability.
SUN recommends that you install the latest version of Java.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.2/

Netscape and Microsoft has not issued any updates or patches.
SUNs Java may be installed to replace the Java VM in Microsoft and Netscape.

We recommend that you either choose to run SUNs JavaVM implementation, or simply implement a policy that restricts execution of Java, so it is only allowed on a few trusted sites, like online banks, intranets and trusted extranets. The use of a transparent proxy allows easy enforcement of such policy.
