I'm on Windows 7 64 bit (Home premium I think) and Firefox 15.0.1.  I'm 
like 90% sure that when I upgraded to FF 15 it marked the Java 7 plugin 
as incompatible and made me use the Java 6 version.  This could be a 64 
bit versus 32 bit issue too: I'm pretty sure I have 64 bit only Java 7, 
and 32 bit Java 6.

Or I could be off my rocker here.  Too many bits which all look alike 
over here to truly keep this stuff straight.  Engineering ain't help 
desk.  If I have a problem I figure it out and fix it, I don't make a 
blog with pretty pictures so other folks can fix theirs.
