Java Plugin doesn't work on some sites


Hi. Ok, so as the subject reads, Java does appear to work, but not on all sites. I don't know if I didn't symlink correctly, or what, or if I need to install something else, so here's what I have.

Oh, btw this is in Galeon and Mozilla.

So, I have 'javaplugin.so' symlinked in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and it's pointing to:
/usr/local/bin/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns4/javaplugin.so as shown here:
Code:
masterc@masterc:/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins$ ls -l 
total 940
-r--r--r--    1 root     root         2363 Sep 21 10:58 ShockwaveFlash.class
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           53 Oct 24 09:28 javaplugin.so -> /usr/local/bin/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns4/javaplugin.so*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       931920 Sep 21 10:57 libflashplayer.so*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        18776 Jun  5  2002 libnullplugin.so*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           30 Oct 24 09:31 rpnp.so -> /usr/local/RealPlayer8/rpnp.so*
So, am I missing something? Should I not symlink it, but copy it over, or should I symlink something else as well, or something else entirely? Oh, also, when I do the "aboutlugins" in the web browser, I get this:
ftp://masterc.no-ip.org/pics/java.png

Is that supposed to be a ���@���@ Plug-in 1.4.1-b21? The question marks are what I am wondering about.

Anyway, if you want more info, let me know I will be glad to provide it.

Thanks

<ok split second update>
I symlinked the libjavaplugin_oji.so to the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory from the /usr/local/bin/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/ figuring maybe the latest version of netscape plugin might do the job, but still a no-go. So I tried the one gen back, from the ns600 directory, but still nothing.

Update:

Ok, so the screenshot has been fixed. Here's the fixed shot:
ftp://masterc.no-ip.org/pics/javafix.png

It showed up like that after I placed the new libjavaplugin_oji.so symlink over there.

Still no such luck on it working though... Any ideas?

Thanks
