Yes I can. Go to the below webpage and install PSM.

It's the same software that Netscape 4.7 uses for these things.

Java is a special case, and support for Java in Mozilla doesn't work on the
Linux port *yet*. This is not something the Mozilla team can do anything
about, Sun needs to port a Java plugin that works with Mozilla. This is
being done as we speak, and you can read the below Mozilla bug on this
issue to follow the progress. Remember that this does not have anything to
do with Javascript, that works completely. Java should work on Mozilla
on the Windows platform at least, don't know about Mac. That shows that
this is not a Mozilla problem, but a Sun problem.
But like I said, follow the below bug if you want to know the status of
this support. Things seam to move forward.

And staying with Netscape 4.x for Java is not something I would do, I
certainly don't have any happy memories of that combination...
