Okay so ever since I updated to Firefox 4 I can't use any Java at all. I tried searching for some solution but none of them work. Whenever I go to an area that requires Java, it tells me I do not have Java installed, and there is nothing wrong with my plugins. So I tried researching this problem and found that I supposedly need Java version 6 Update 10 or higher, yet I have java version 6 update 11. So the problem is obviously with Firefox and not with me... Now I'm forced to use Internet Explorer, and god knows how horribly slow and freeze-prone that web browser is. Yet a slow browser is better than being unable to use a browser at all...Help?
