I can set the jre version from the Control Panel -> Java -> Java Runtime Environment Settings. But I cannot figure out how to change the Java Plug-in Version. I would like to use an earlier java plug-in version, like 1.5.0_12. How can I do that? Thanks

Here is the output in the Java Console:

Java Plug-in 1.6.0_19 Using JRE version 1.5.0_12-b04 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM

The simplest way would probably be to uninstall Java JRE 1.6.0_19 and install Java JRE 1.5.0_12

    apparently Java detects the latest version and sets it as default. I had to uninstall all the way down to 5.0_12. Thanks.
