editing the registry...

Allright well i'm having a little trouble getting java to work with firefox. And i found on the mozilla website that a registry edit can fix this. I have the registry fix, its:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\mozilla.org\Mozilla]
"CurrentVersion"="1.5"

So all i know is go to run and type regedit, then i'm not sure what to do from there. I don't wanna mess up the registry so help would be appreciated.

colecifer,

From your links, it looks like all you need to do is download and run the registry fix and it will make the needed entry for you.

Or, you can click on the registry fix link and select 'open' when prompted and then it prompts you for approval to add the entry to the registry...

HTH,
-LW
