Java problems with firefox update

It might have something to do with the aggressive way I've configured the windows 7 firewall A brief glance at Oracle's commentary regarding how the 31 version is a quite different implementation than the 29 version suggests to me that it is possible that some other program is trying to get through the firewall with the post U29 versions 30 and 31 that is NOT the case with the U29 version.
