I'm trying to upgrade to Java 7 on my 2010 macbook pro running OSX Lion. I downloaded jdk 7u15 and it goes through the entire install procedure flawlessly. However when I went to add it into Eclipse I found it was not under System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines as was Java 6. I can't find it anywhere.

If this doesn't work, search the file system for a directory containing "jdk1.7". – Code-Apprentice Feb 23 '13 at 22:49

You should check Xprotect.plist on your system of the reported vulnerabilities – user1428716 Feb 23 '13 at 22:55

Use /usr/libexec/java_home -V on a Mac to see all JDK versions installed. (JDK 7 versions reside normally under /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines).
