The puzzle works fine for me both in a Linux debug build and nightlies
on Windows 7 beta.  If I load about:plugins in the Windows build, the
Java plugin isn't listed there, so there is a regression of some sort.
On Windows I'm using Sun Java:
    File: npjp2.dll
    Version: 6.0.140.8

Jim, which exact version of Java are you using?

(I'll backout just in case, if I can't find anything obvious...)

Same as you on Win7 RC build 7100

    File: npjp2.dll
    Version: 6.0.140.8

The Java plugin is showing in my about:plugins and in Addons/Plugins tab, so its acting strangely for sure.

I see this issue, but it is kind of intermittent.  Once i get the jigzone puzzle to load once, then it seems to work every time.  exiting browser, clearing cache, clearing the java applet cache all seem to not have an effect on making it fail once you get it to work once.

What I did the time it first worked was disabled both jit content and jit chrome, but as reverting those setting did not make it go back to the failure case I am not ready to say it is JIT related.

I backed out and reopened bug 486349:
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/cd5bfa34d29f

Please try the next build with that change and verify it works. Thanks.

-> FIXED

Now if we could just get a Windows tinderbox build to actually complete ... :-(

For the record, I can reproduce the problem consistently with:
1. load http://www.kchampgames.com/game.php?id=90
   (a Flash game)
2. in a new tab, load about:plugins
3. Reload the first tab
4. Reload the about:plugins tab -- everything after the Flash plugin is gone
