    So I was really annoyed by using Ice-weasel so I installed firefox and used the instructions here Adding REAL Firefox to Debian Lenny I basically followed everything and everything works except JAVA. I followed the java install instructions exactly making a symbolic link, to the jre plugin, but it still doesn't work. :( I used this directory for the plugin "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" that entire directory is symbolically linked to "/usr/lib/firefox/plugins" which is the new firefox plugin directory. So since everything is linked to each other all I need to do is make a symbolic link to the original plugin directory which is "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" but I'm not sure why it's not working.
