Sun Java Addin support for FF 7?

The Sun Java Addin is always disabled with FF 7. What gives?

I installed the latest Java Runtime Environment 7.0.0.147 (x86) but no luck. :(

It is really annoying to update an FF these days because of these incompatibility issues. Mozilla needs to work closer with other software developers to ensure that they have all the add-ins compatible at the time of release :(

I see that your Java Console 7.0 extension is disabled. Read the information below about Java Console. Add-ons > Extensions

The important item that must be enabled for Java to work on sites that use Java is Add-ons > Plugins > Java(TM) Platform SE (version)

You can test to see that Java is working at this link --> https://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp

Java Console
Unless you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages, you do not need Java Console. 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:
