I need the Java Development Toolkit to work on a specific site to measure packet loss. As Firefox lists the plugin as a security risk there is no way to "enable" it permanently. So i choose the "ask to activate" option. but when i visit the site that requires java development toolkit, no option to click on anything to activate, no pop ups nothing. and i can't use the site. Have installed latest java plugin, uninstalled, re-installed etc. how can I solve this issue [short of dumping Firefox]

hello dandelion777, while you're on the site where you wantto activate the plugin, try to right-click somewhere on a blank spot, go to view page info > permissions where you should be able to (always) activate the plugin for that page...

Thanks for the prompt response Phillip.

I tried that and it allowed me to select to activate the development toolkit on that site but the feature on the site still didn't work.

I can access the site and get it to work in IE and so I tried opening the site in Firefox with IE tab 2 but still no luck.

I am trying to use the site pingtest.com to measure my internet performance but the packet test always fails with java toolkit error.

Any other ideas greatly appreciated as I hate using IE. I have latest java update and everything too
