Also (and note, I'm not sure if this is the case for the Java plugin, in
particular, but it's a good rule with the way Mozilla / Firefox works
under *nix systems) you may want to run Firefox once as root if you do
the system-wide installation.  It likes to write things to files that
only root owns to indicate what plugins do what or something like that.
 That may also help out.
