Hi Ariel, Maryjane, Mark, & Randy, Below is a tip on how to keep the balloon messages showing longer so they can be accessed with a left mouse click.
Working with Balloon messages using Windows 7 If you are using windows 7 and you would like to delay the time for the windows balloon system notification to disappear, please do the following. The first thing we will need to do is access the ease of access center, which you could quickly navigate there by pressing Windows key plus the letter U. After arriving to the ease of access center, you will need to tab until you hear "Use the computer without a display" without the quotes and press enter. In the next dialog, press your tab key until you land on a combo box, which will ask, "How long should window notification dialog boxes stay up?" Use your up and down arrow keys until you land on your preferred time. After you make your selection, tab to the ok button and activate it with the space bar and you are done. HTH Take care.

Now use your up arrow key until you get to Java and press space. Now use your down or up arrow keys to find the update and press enter. The rest is simply the installation.
