Fault and fact don't always equal. The fact is, installing plug-ins for 
Mozilla takes a little bit of work. It goes with the fact that running 
Mozilla will take up more memory than IE. It might be the fault of 
Microsoft to already have IE installed on their system, but the fact is, 
Mozilla takes up more memory to run than IE.

Mozilla is not meant to be an end-user product, they even claim so!
In order to get Java working properly you need to transfer several files.

 From Holger's site.

30. Installing Java:
Install the Sun Java Plugin . Then add the following line to user.js:
user_pref("plugin.do_JRE_Plugin_Scan", true);

If adding this line doesn't work, then you have to copy the java plugin 
files manually:
Go to C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1_01\bin\ (or whereever you 
installed the Java Plugin) and copy the following files into your 
Mozilla/Netscape 6 plugins directory (C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape 
6\plugins\ ):
NPJava*.dll
NPOJI600.dll
