Fernando, I had to install a different version of java. Search the
archives there was a message recently on this. I just don't have it
handy. As far as Java, Adrian wrote in a recent post:

worked perfectly. 

I usually copy it to /usr/local/mozilla/plugins so that it is available
to all users, but then again, I immediately had upgraded mozilla after
install. If you are using the stock mozilla installed with Fedora, then
the copy to directory should be /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.
