I had the exact problem described in the initial post where I copied the
.so file to the plugin directory and whenever I would visit a page with
Java, Mozilla would crash.

I have the java plugin installed in
/opt/j2sdk_nb/j2sdk1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so

My plugin directory is /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.1/plugins/

As root I cd to /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.1/plugins/ and ran the command:

"ln -s 
/opt/j2sdk_nb/j2sdk1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so  libjavaplugin_oji.so"

After this, my problems went away and the java plugin worked.

Thanks,
Jason
