You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Multiple_Java_Console_extensions Disable the Java Quick Starter extension: Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions<br /> Control Panel -> Java -> Advanced tab -> Miscellaneous -> Java Quick Starter (disable) See http://www.java.com/en/download/help/quickstarter.xml - What is Java Quick Starter (JQS)? What is the benefit of running JQS? - 6.0 (added a line break before Control Panel)

I can't find a way to Disable the Java Quick Starter. I go to my control panel and it doesn't have Java Control Panel. I tried in Firefox the Tools/add-on/extensions but I have no control panel. I did go to my extensions and uninstalled all Java's.

You are 18 updates behind in Java; your version 1.6.0_05; current version is 1.6.0_23. See update instructions below under '''"Other issues that need your attention"'''. Disable Java Quick Starter: (Windows) Start > Settings > Control Panel > Java, the Java Control Panel will open, click Advanced tab, expand Miscellaneous, un-check "Java Quick Starter", exit Firefox, then restart Firefox. If I remember correctly, you must do this each time you update Java. ------------------------------------ <br /> '''Other issues that need your attention''' The information submitted with your question indicates that you have out of date plugins with known security and stability issues that should be updated.
