I'm not a programmer or an expert but just a newbie Ubuntu user. What I did to get rid of this problem was: 1) Add a Debian repository (deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main non-free) and uncheck any other repository 2) Reload the software list 3) Uninstall every version of java installed and the web plugins (cacao, icedtea, java, etc) 4) Install sun-java6-bin (6-12-1) 5) remove the Debian repository and check again the standard repositories 6) Voilá, Firefox is runing java applets without crashing
Hopes it helps Oscar -- Intrepid, Firefox crashes when viewing Java applets.
