Here's counsel on your Java console, not counsel :-

It's a Java version confusion bug at Sun that is part of their long 
tradition of sloppiness in this specialty. This time they thought of a 
new angle; instead of goofing around with their own numbers, Sun put the 
wrong info into Java 6 about what Firefox versions it's compatible with.

You can safely ignore the bogus error message unless you need the Java 
console because "normal" Java will work.

If it bothers you, you can uninstall Java 6 and reinstall 5.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
