Firefox 3.5b99 was reporting the JEP version as 0.9.5+d in the Tools>Extensions>Plugins window.

I manually installed the current Java Embedding Plugin 0.9.7.2 in both the Firefox>Contents>MacOS>Plugins folder and the normal Library>Internet Plugins folder. I also searched my HD to be no other versions of JEP were present. Firefox v.3.5b99 came with JEP 0.9.7.1 originally, but wrongly reports the version as 0.9.5+d in the Tools>Extensions>Plugins window even after upgrading to the current 0.9.7.2.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to Tools>Extensions>Plugins window and look at the version listed
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Says version 0.9.5+d instead of 0.9.7.2.

Expected Results:  
Should say version 0.9.7.2.

Some java applets aren't handled correctly, but that's another bug report.

The JEP is no longer used.
