Public bug reported:

An extremely important site for my work, the NCBI Protein Data Bank
stores crystal structure of proteins which used to be easily
downloadable. Not now, the site reports Firefox 12 as not compatible
indicating that javascripts are blocked. The site is:

http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/browser/browsercheck.do

According to Firefox preferences Javascripts are enabled. The NCBI PDB
site advices to install an Oracle Java plugin in Firefox, but this does
not solve the problem; furthermore if the Oracle plugin is installed
Firefox becomes unstable, and still does not work with the NCBI PDB
site.

The problem is extremely critical to me and I believe to many other
scientists.
