Works in IE with newest Java version 7. Have uninstalled Java prior to downloading and reinstalling latest but it's not showing up as a FF plug-in or extension so I'm out of luck. I tried running in Safe Mode but same problem is there. Java developer tool kit is showing but nothing else of Java name. Disabled the tool kit (Not sure why it's there) and I'm afraid of starting everything over again.
