I am running Ubuntu 10.04, and do not wish to use the .EXE file. I am running the Windows version of Firefox. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO USE THE UBUNTU VERSION OF FIREFOX.

I do not need the Linux version of Java. I have that already. What I do need is the Java Plugin for Firefox.

You may need to install an additional package that contains the JP2 plugin for Firefox. I have java-1_6_0-sun-plugin
