What version of Java are you using? If it is version 5.0, try going down to 1.4.2_08 and see if that resolves the problem.

 

Also, is this ANY site? What version of firefox are you using? What version of java?

Also, before you uninstall java try the following:

Start, control panel, double click on Java Control Panel

For older Java (Java Control Panel 1.4.x and below)

Open the "Java Plug-in" item from the Windows Control Panel, and find the panel or dialog where you can configure which browsers Java makes itself visible to. Attempt to activate Java for Netscape and Mozilla if these options are not already ticked. (You may be told that you do not have these browsers; if so, skip the next step.)

1. Test again whether your installation is working by visiting the test page below.
2. Installing Java requires registry entries to locate firefox. The Firefox installer should create them. However, zip builds and some installer versions fail to create a registry entry required by Java. Save http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/resources/firebird-jre142-fix.reg to your desktop. Double-click on it, or right-click it and select "Merge".
3. Test again whether your installation is working by visiting the test page below. Hopefully it is!

For new Java (Java Control Panel 1.5 for JRE 5.0, and above)

This version of Java Control Panel no longer allows the user to choose which browsers to support. (This seems bizarre, as you are still given a choice when installing it. If you cannot change this setting afterwards, Sun should automatically support all browsers.)

If you installed Java via your browser, download a new installer.

 

I'm using the latest version of everything, i'll try reinstalling the java plug-in. Thanks guys.
