Things to try:

1. Do you still have in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins  a
ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_21/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so?

If so, and you added the other link to /libjavaplugin.so, then you can
remove that old direct link to /libnpjp2.so.


2. Try:
yum list java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin

Does it show it as installed? If so remove it, for good measure.


3. Same suggestion as Genes with respect to file "pluginreg.dat". Look
for it in directory /home/your_user_name/.mozilla/firefox/xxxx.default
where xxxxx stands for some profile identifier or whatever. Close all
Firefox windows and either delete "pluginreg.dat" or rename it. Then
restart Firefox and the file should be recreated, then look at
about:plugins.
