There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Just download core 0.9.2 from the link below your user name.

1. Close down bitcoin core.

2. Extract and overwrite the bin/32 or bin/64 directory.

3. Restart bitcoin core.

Good idea to graba copy of 'wallet.dat' before undertaking this process. If upgrade fails, try again until works then paste over new wallet.dat with old wallet.dat.  Avoid losing your coind this way

I like to extract to a new directory in case the upgrade fails. saves me having to extract (and possibly download) the old version of what ever software I am extracting / installing.
If it works i delete old, rename to normal/what it should be and all is good.

and yeah 1000% backup wallet.dat, in multiple places. You should do this anyways every so often.
