Java Plug-in 1.4.2_01 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

What version do you use, see about:plugins?

When I clicked the link, a page asked me to accept a certificate, I did,
temporarily. Then the IBM page loaded, Java started, and after some time the
applet displayed the result: COnnectivityTest/SWG, so it was working, according
to IBM.
Then I tried to go on with step two, and got results, but one of the screens
told me my browser wasn´t supported. Didn´t know why, and don´t have the time to
investigate now.

If you want to get the latest Java:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html

You´ll need 1.4.2_04 JRE, if you don´t know better, or want to test 1.5 beta 2.

wfm Java Plug-in 1.4.2_01 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)
wfm Java Plug-in 1.5.0 for Netscape Navigator 

but in Step two a popup tells that 'This Browser isn´t supported'
They are suggesting to install IE5 or IE6, Netscape 4.76 or 4.77.

That is the testpage for connectivity to SameTime, 
so maybe this bug is Tech Evangelism?

WFM with Mozilla trunk build 2004060308 on WinNT4, JRE 1.4.1

Perhaps something like in bug 240105 comment 6 and bug 240105 comment 8? With a
quite old profile I've crashed, with a new one not. Same JRE.

Alez Ruskewich: Could you provide Talkback incident id?

Comment 6

[Alez Ruskewich]

As per original comments below, my problem seemed to be with my level of JRE.
Upgraded to 1.4.1_04 and the crash problem seems to be gone. It was not just on
the site I indicated in my original report.
