FWIW, my 15.0.1 Firefox runs 10.7.2.10 Java just fine (when
I let it; I've taken to running with the plugin disabled most of
the time). But I'm on Windows XP, while Sven's using Windows 7;
it seems probable that his troubles have more to do with the O/S
environment (bitness?) than with browser-makers' policy choices.
