Java Applets not working with Firefox 5 properly
Java Applets work sometime. But after sometime the Java icon at the bottom (near date & time) disappears. After this no matter what I do it does not work. Java Applets are used in this case to draw charts. The same charts come out properly in Internet Explorer. But I prefer using Firefox for its speed. What is the reason for this problem ?

If you're using Firefox 5.0, an update to Firefox 5.0.1 (released to regular channel users 12-Jul-2011) might fix the problem. According to the changelog for v. 5.0.1 posted on the FileHippo site here, this update fixes a problem with the Java plugin for Mac OS X users, and it's possible the update may fix the Java plugin problem for XP3 users as well.
Firefox 5.0 users who try a manual update (Help | About Firefox | Check For Updates) are currently being told that their Firefox is up to date, but you can download v. 5.0.1 from FileHippo or from the mozilla website here.
