EVALUATION With our latest nightly (March 1st) jre8 + FX 2.1 b15. It's working fine - the 2 items noted in the above evaluation is fixed. With jre8 + FX 2.0.3, the result is the same as 7u4 + FX 2.0.3. No hang, but the 2 items in the evaluation is there.

EVALUATION I couldn't reproduce it on vista 64-bit with the following 32-bit: 7u4 b13 + FX 2.0.3 fcs b03 Couple of things I've noticed which could be bugs: 1) Given: 7u4 has plugin version of 10.4.0 FX 2.0.3 has plugin version of 10.3.1 After the above installations, upon start of IE the first time, there was a UAC dialog regarding ssvagent.exe for updating the TreatAs key to point to 7u3 (corresponding to 10.3.1). This shouldn't happen as the TreatAs key was pointing to 7u4 corresponding to the higher plugin version of 10.4.0. I think this is due to the registered jp2ssv.dll was from FX 2.0.3. 2) The plugin binaries (jp2iexp.dll, plugin.jar, deploy.jar, etc.) from FX 2.0.3 was used to run the applet. Since 7u4 has the higher plugin version, I think in this case the plugin binaries from 7u4 should be used. The only binaries coming from FX 2.0.3 should be FX specific ones, e.g. jfxrt.jar, prism-d3d.dll.
