This site seems to work fine with the Java Embedding Plugin:

Yes, it seems to work fine with the Java Embedding Plugin. I do not typically
install this when testing nightly builds. Should I?

I'd say that if it works for you, you should use it :-)

But if you encounter problems, please file a bug report using the Java
Embedding Plugin's Bugs tracker (at its SourceForge site):

This does not crash a Firefox build from July 9. Also, I'm not interested in
bugs concerning the Mozilla suite. I suspect if this doesn't crash FF it won't
crash the suite. Marking WFM. If this is still a problem for the suite, feel
free to reopen it again, assigned to someone else.

On a hunch, I re-tried this on an optimized build of Firefox (I was using debug
before), and I could crash it. Modifying summary to make it not specific to the
suite.

This pacman game works fine for me in Firefox 3.5 on Mac.
