Would you rather that it let malicious Java run on your computer no matter what? I would rather be more careful than less careful when it comes to Java. This is nothing to get angry or upset about, quite the opposite in fact.

java 7 update 21 (x64)

i r on Windows 8 i am on 7 and i am using both x64 and x86 of Java 7 update 21...
 
I use Cyberfox and Java 7 U21 and I have no problem with this.
The problem is in the browser so try reinstall with cleaning everything data.

Also you can try Cyberfox. It's much better than Waterfox.

not a waterfox setting problem bcs i have been using the site before java got all crazy with blocking everything...
 
Using FF 20.0.1.

I do not have Java installed, and the test will not run.

So, I would agree with the others, it is probably a Java thing.
 
From what little I could read of your comments I got the idea that you started giving less of a crap about what Java code runs on your computer, which is a really stupid idea. I suggest you uninstall Java, avoid anything that uses it, and get on with your daily life.

I think it's a Java security setting as it works fine for me in Waterfox.

It sounds like what you need to do is loosen up your Java security settings. Open up Java in your Control Panel and click the security tab. Mine looks like this.

Aquinus yap as i said in my second post, i needed to change java settings, and today i heard there won't be any more Java 7 updates if something major don't happen, the only Java release that will come would be version 8.
