You should probably file a new bug report so we can diagnose the problem. Some questions to answer in your bug report:

Are all web pages blank or just one page with a Java applet?

Is the blank page problem only reproducible when the NPAPI sandbox is enabled?

AFAIK, the 32-bit and 64-bit Windows builds should be able to share the same user profile (but not running simultaneously).


thanks,
chris

Then installed nightly(32) and got a blank page instead of my lovely HTML
(I see nothing)

Is this normal? Shall I remove 64 versiĆ³n? Something i could do?
Perhaps open a new thread or file a bug?

  The NPAPI sandbox is off by default. The "dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox.flash"
pref will only enable the sandbox for Flash. There is another pref,
"dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox.default", that will enable the sandbox for all
NPAPI plugins, including Java. I didn't mention the "default" pref because
we wanted people to focus their testing on Flash, but if you find any Java
crashes or bugs with the "default" pref, please let us know!

  Do any of these affect NPAPI Java behaviour somehow? (ie: can it break
applet running or privileges?)
  Thanks.

Bob Owen just landed a basic sandbox for Firefox's NPAPI plugin container
(bug 1123245) in Nightly 38. This NPAPI sandbox is orthogonal to Adobe's
Flash Protected Mode sandbox.

The sandbox is Windows-only and preffed off for now. To enable it, flip
the "dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox.flash" pref to true. Flash features that could
use focused testing are file uploads/downloads, camera/mic access, and
clipboard.

A more restricted NPAPI sandbox is coming in bug 1123759.
