Mozilla's check your plugins page is claiming that Java 7 update 51 is

Java 8 is out only at Oracle's download page (not on java.com for
several more weeks). Further, Oracle is NOT supporting Java 8 on XP
computers.
So, why do I get an erroneous message?
On Windows 8 Pro computer, I get the same erroneous message for
SeaMonkey 2.25 (and for Fx 24.4 ESR).
I upgraded on Windows 8 computer to Java 8 and had to use system restore
to get back to Java 7 update 51. Java 8 does not work with my Java
speedtests. The only reason I have Java installed is for speed tests.
Java 7 is being supported for at least another year by Oracle for
security patches so there is no reason at all for Mozilla to claim Java
7 update 51 is outdated on either version of Windows.
Windows 7 (x64)
SeaMonkey 2.25
Java 7 u51 (properties 7.0.510.13)
According to <http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp>, my Java is
current and "No out-of-date versions of Java were found".
I'm running Win7 Pro SP1 x64 with 64-bit Java installed (java 7 u51) and
SM 2.25, same thing. Tried installing the 32-bit Java of the same
version, their install identifies the 64-bit already in place, asks for
confirmation to overwrite the existing install. I said no. But SM
still says I'm not up to date with Java.
