In Firefox :Help => about Firefox

What version do you have? Current is 2.0.0.12

Just click Help=>check for updates and let it update

What version of Java Runtime Environment (control panel / java / about

Current version is 1.6.0_04-b12

Previous versions are full of security holes.

http://www.majorgeeks.com/Sun_Java_Runtime...ment_d4648.html

I recommend you uninstall all existing versions of Java Runtime Environment in control panel add/remove programs .

Then restart, download and install the new version and restart computer.

Thanks for the info. I was using java version 1.6.0-oem however; it seems this version is incompatible with vista. All seems well at this point (knock on wood!)

Pete_C's advice was right on the money. Older versions of Java can also cause problems because Malware can exploit the holes. You should always keep your Java updated, and remove all older versions of the software.

Good Luck!!
