Java (and Macromedia and others) does not believe 64-bit systems are in
mainstream use, so they have not developed a 64-bit plugin (for
anything). They're all dropping the ball here, but as another reply
stated, for now you can install a 32-bit version of firefox alongside
the 64-bit one to use 32-bit plugins.
