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

SeaMonkey.
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7 update 51 is outdated on either version of Windows.
I never use Mozilla's plugin check.
Did Java 7u51 stop working for you, or did you just decide to do a
plugin check?
It isn't on the block list so should continue to work. Last blocked
versions are, October 16, 2013: Java Plugin 7 update 25 to 44
(click-to-play), Mac OS X, Windows and Linux
[Blocked Add-ons :: Add-ons for
Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/)
