hello donnaofmaryland, please try the following: go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > plugins, set the "java deployment toolkit" to never activate and then try to use the plugincheck page again...

Your Java(TM) Platform plugin may be disabled in the Firefox Add-ons Manager Plugins list, since I don't see it in your list of plugins. Bug 1130896 - Plugin check gets stuck if Java runtime disabled and Java Deployment toolkit enabled.

To enable the Java plugin, see the article, Use the Java plugin to view interactive content on websites under Enabling Java. That article also explains how to update Java, if your version is outdated.

Thanks, but got contradictory instructions. One said, click "never activate" for Java. Other said, click "ask to activate." Can click never activate, but ask to activate is grayed out. Still getting msgs that shockwave flash is outdated and should be updated. Tried to click on to update, but Firefox just circles endlessly.

The instructions are not contradictory, since you reported two different issues:

I wrote that because you said you can't access msn jigsaw puzzles but you didn't give a link to that problem website. I was assuming the problem site needs the Java(TM) Platform plugin (which is DIFFERENT from the "java deployment toolkit" plugin) to be enabled and working. If the Java(TM) Platform plugin is outdated and vulnerable you need to update it. The article I linked above has more information.

This advice was to get the Plugin Check page working. Only thing, I just tried that page and it isn't working at all for me. The PluginCheck website could be having problems. You can also update Java by going to java.com directly or you can use the Update option in the Java Control Panel (details in the article Use the Java plugin to view interactive content on websites which I linked to before).

To update Shockwave Flash, see the instructions in the Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems article.
