Firefox crashes when java enabled

Tried all of the fixes on Mozilla website (drivers, add ons, no maleware, uninstall/reinstall). When I disable both Java add ons the problems seems to go away. I have new system (1 month old) Windows 7 64 bit with Java 32 bit installed for Firefox. I have also tried Waterfox 64 with Java 64 bit and same problems.

I assume you're using the latest Java 7? For some reason the Java website still says you're on the recommended update even if that is 6.29 (or thereabouts).

I installed all the latest up to date versions of everything. I tried making different profiles and I cannot figure it out.
