I'm thinking of uninstalling it permanently, and just forgetting about it. I've just about had it with Java, after living perfectly without it for the past month or so. So apparently I have Java 7-13, FF sees it and has the plug-in installed properly, but Java will not allow itself to be enabled on my machine. I did note that in the Java Control Panel, in the Java tab, when I view the currently installed JRE (7-13), it is UNchecked (not enabled), and will not allow itself to be checked. I tried a re-install, went fine, still same problem. But when I attempt to verify my version on Oracle's Java verification, it can't find it. Then installed Java 7-13, no problems, everything looked great, FF plug-in check came up all green. Hearing about Java 7-13, I uninstalled all previous versions of Java (7-09, 7-10) from my computer (they had been disabled manually in FF), and re-booted.
