If I update Java to the latest version, how can I still access an older web site?

I have updated Java before, and then I lose access to a web site I always use. When I went back to the old Java version, I was able to access it again. Now I'm getting a "this plug-in is vulnerable" message regarding my current version of Java, and the web site won't load either.

Looks like I'm screwed either way.

What's to do?

Thanks so much!

Hi Luthien, Even though it is vulnerable, as a user you can still enable that Java version. Although this sounds like a previously fixed issue https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/pu.../1987 What versions of Java are you working with? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1008387

Thank you!
