Today, I couldn't get Firefox to load my Pogo games. A page came up saying connection was reset, etc. Soooo, I downloaded latest version of Firefox (8) and I find out it's not Java supported. I am lost!! I can't find the place to go back to older version or how to solve problem once I do. Please help. I cleared caches & history. Thanks

You have the latest "Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_29 for Mozilla browsers" installed which is all that you should need (Add-ons > Plugins).

You probably saw something about Java Console being disabled; read the information below.

Java Console
Unless you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages, you do not need Java Console. Java update will install a new Java Console with each update. Removing the Java Console extensions has no effect on the functioning of Java for web browsing. You can see, but not remove, the Java Console extensions in Add-ons > Extensions. Java Console extensions can be safely removed manually by following the instructions in this article:
