Updated to Java 7.45 and now it doesn't work in Firefox. I'm running Firefox 25 in Windows XP. Java works fine in Explorer, but not Firefox. Have enabled (Always Activate) in my Add-on Manager. Have re-installed and re-booted, un-installed older versions of Java - still not working. Help!

Does the Java plugin show as activated on the about:plugins page?

You can also check the Security tab in the Java Console via the Control Panel to make sure that Java is enabled.

Thanks cor-el,

Yes, in the Firefox Tools/Add-ons Manager, the Java Platform shows as Always Activate.

And the Java Console also shows as checked in Enable Java content in the browser (in the Security tab), as well as checked as the default Java for both Firefox and Explorer (in the Advanced tab).

Other ideas?
