If your end-users are still running JInitiator 1.1.8.x on your desktop, it’s time to start planning to migrate them to the native Sun Java plug-in.  In the interim until they’re migrated, you’ll want to ensure that you keep up with the latest updates for this release.  As of today, the latest JInitiator release is 1.1.8.27.

My hardworking team has just completed its certification of JInitiator 1.1.8.27 with E-Business Suite Release 11i.  Oracle JInitiator 1.1.8.27 is available for download now, and Oracle strongly recommends that all users of earlier versions of JInitiator 1.1.8.x be upgraded to this latest release.

Oracle JInitiator 1.1.8.27 is released via Patch 6612584. It requires Apps Interoperability Patch 6615232.
