------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  This release of Fedora Core includes a preview release of `gcjwebplugin`, a Firefox plugin for Java applets.  `gcjwebplugin` is not enabled by default because although the security implementation in `GNU Classpath` is being actively developed, it is not mature enough to run untrusted applets safely.  That said, the AWT and Swing implementations in `GNU Classpath` are now sufficiently mature that they can run many applets deployed on the web.  Adventurous users who want to try `gcjwebplugin` can read `/usr/share/doc/libgcj-4.1.1/README.libgcjwebplugin.so`, as installed by the `gcc` rpm.  The README explains how to enable the plugin and the risks associated with doing so.
  
- If it still does not work, one could try install Sun's JRE at http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp . Please read its provided instructions for installation. To setup such for Java applets handling on Firefox, please read JreOnFirefox.
