What can you make from this error report form LimeWire? it worked fine before. i even went to the java site again and downloaded and installed the RPM file for the runtime enviroment.
I don't know what it is about the Firefox Java plugin, but that thing is a nightmare. I use Firefox on my Windows machine at work and I installed that plugin and the same thing happened to me. NONE of my other Java programs would work. The only way I found around it was to remove ALL Java installations and unistall Firefox and then re-install them. Of course this was on a Win2K machine.
On your Linux box, I would check your PATH and see if it points to something odd . If it does, I'd remove that directory and point to a decent Java installation from Sun or Blackdown. I'd also check your Firefox plugin directory and create a new link to a decent Java.

jdk 1.5 is not fully compatible with jdk 1.4 : i have experienced problems in few swing programs which works with jdk 1.4, tomcat,....
The look and feel is improved, the speed pretty much the same...

i suggest you get the rpm or the bin file from java.sun.com or install blackdown or ibm jdk manually. After installing it you do a symbolic link of javaplugin to firefox plugin dir
i did download the bin which extracted a rpm which i installed. still nothing works.... im not really interested in java in firefox at this point, but it would be nice.
