As you can see on the official web page, the utility can be manually removed using Add or Remove Programs feature. Also, you can can use Java Uninstall Tool to automatically uninstall the application. If these methods do not work, try using Revo Uninstaller. Even if it can't uninstall the utility normally, it will force it to uninstall by wiping out all traces of its presence from the system.

By accessing the official website, you can download the latest version that is compatible with your current operating system. You can use Java on both 32 and 64-bit machines. The latest version available is fully compatible with Windows XP and you shouldn't encounter any compatibility issues while using it.
I receive the prompt to update Java but when I check, I find the cert is expired as of July 2012. Do they care and is this still a valid update? I got no help from Sun Microsystems.

These certificates are not updated every day. Some certificates are valid for 1, 2, 5, or even 10 years. You can update your Java runtime without worries.
