Operating systems reported in the incidents: Windows 7 and Windows XP SP3 Java versions reported in the incidents: Java 7, 6u26, 6u24 and 6u15 Attachments provided by a user: "Screenshot1.jpg and Screenshot2.jpg" were sent by one and same user who reported Firefox 6 regression with both Java 7 and java 6u26 Users reported that they were having regression problems immediately after upgrading to Firefox version 6.
