As I said, I have the most recent version of the plug-in already installed, however Firefox doesn't seem to try to access it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to http://www.popcap.com/allgames.php?p=online 2. Load any of the games listed above. Actual Results: The site states that the plug-in is needed, even though I have already installed it, so I can't play the games. Expected Results: It should play the games.
Similar problem with PopCap for Bookworm at games.yahoo.com/console/bw. Game starts normally, runs normally for 17 seconds (on my XP system), and then disappears.
Version: unspecified → 3.6 Branch
Problem still there in Firefox 4.0.1. Seems similar to previous JRE bug that prevented some apps from running in 3.14.x. Is there a resolution to this?
Mass-closing old Extension Compatibility bugs that relate to legacy add-ons or NPAPI plug-ins. If you think this bug is still valid, please reopen or comment. Sorry for the bug spam, and happy Friday!
