Re: JRE and Browser Plugin Problems

Group,

I too am having some similar problems and it's driving me up a wall.

I recently upgraded to the JRE 1.5_04. Everything installs fine
because any webpage utility I've gone to tell me what version of all
this I have tells me that everything is okay as far as the install
goes. I can open demo applets in both Firefox and MSIE on my WinXP
platform. My Thunderbird (upgraded to 1.0.6), however, cannot access
my email server at all (nothing changed at all -- the previous version
started not working like this as soon as I started doing the Java
updates). Furthermore, I can't open the control panel from the Java
icon in Start | Settings | Control Panel. It just sits there and
starts another instance of javaw.exe in the Task Manager, but no
control panel. I've seen it exactly once throughout this process but
have never seen it again, but I do know it's really reorganized from
the previous version of the Java control panel. Please help!

Mike
