Java
I know about the security implications but need the java-plugin for a certain application. JRE 7.11 32-bit is installed on Win7x64 prof. I used Seamonkey 2.14.1 or 2.15 (the effect is the same) an on some profiles java only partially works: 1) http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp - works 2) http://javatester.org/version.html - does not work (nothing happens, the java console which is activated does not appear.) The application I need seems to be of type 2 and also does not work. On other user-profiles on the same pc everything is fine (and it also used to work with older versions of jre), so I rule out the seamonkey and the java installation. The problem must be somewhere in the profile. Any ideas?

This could explain other weird things I have some times, like the auto-update not being executed correctly. Thank you for your intervention. You are most welcome. Happy searchplugging :-) Just to add. As I had the same issue with firefox 18.0.1 I did the untar trhough the console also. Now I have the searchplugins with the xml files also.

The Gecko backend downloads the phishing and malware data in chunks at a low priority. I think it takes up to a week for the complete tables to be downloaded. After that, any updates are also download in chunks.

Rostyk, I know nothing about ATT or Bellsouth and never use POP. But I typed pop settings for firefox for att into Google and the very first hit displayed the very information you are seeking.
