Java links just stopped working in Firefox 10.0.02

I'm running Firefox on my Windwos 7 laptop. I upgraded to 10.0.02 when the update popped up a couple weeks ago. Today out of the blue, all my java links stopped working. Gmail is fine, but my links in Hotmail will not open -- I click the link and nothing happens. The same problem happens on other websites too. I checked my add-ons and the java plug-in was not up to date. I updated it, but the issue persists. Any help would be appreciated as this is very annoying! Everything works fine in IE by the way. Thanks, Garret

OK, so Hotmail links started to work, however I still have the same problem on other sites. I went into the options menu and disabled javascript temporarily. I then went back in and re-enabled it, and now Hotmail is working. However, on another website, when I try to click the link, nothing happens (and I know the link is good). Down in the corner, I see //javascript, but no url that it is directing too.
