You have a very old version of Java and Firefox 3.6 and higher requires Java 1.6.0.10 or above. Try updating to see if that resolves your problem. To avoid problems, it usually works out best to remove these very old versions of Java through Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, restart your computer, then follow the instructions in the article below to do the online installation of the new Java. Remember to restart Firefox after the online installation of Java.

Install/Update Java: your ver. 1.4.1_02 (~~red:very old~~); current ver. 1.6.0.20 (important security update 04-15-2010) (~~red:Firefox 3.6 and above requires Java 1.6.0.10 or higher~~; see: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Java-related+issues#Java_does_not_work_in_Firefox_3_6 ) ~~red:Check your version here~~: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ See: Installing Java Do the update with Firefox closed.
