Of course. Usually most updates patch security holes and fixes bugs for better compatibility.

Yes. An updated version means bugs fixed, security improvements, and ofcourse the ability to run java files compiled using the latest versions.

It is usually wise to keep the Java client updated. It is safe to update it as I have updated it on all of my PCs in my home and have had no issues at all.

Hi If you use Java applications, it is useful to update.
Just be aware that it may take another 15Mb of HD space and still keep all the old versions too.
