I use mozilla firefox for my browser. Some of my friends and I used to play sheepshead and spades on yahoo. We'd like to start doing this again but my browser does not seem to work with the yahoo games. It says additional plug-ins are needed. Do any of you know how I can get past/through this so I can play yahoo games?

If you look at the top of the browser window you will probably see an easy to miss little yellow bar telling you that a pop-up was blocked. Allowing that pop-up to open should take you right to the plug-in.

You need to install the latest version of Java (1.5) to get Yahoo Games to work. Uninstall whatever version you have at the moment and install this one (http://jdl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=9954) instead and it should work fine.

I got these 3 links from the Mozilla forum and the games are now working fine. If anyone else needs them here they are. They're in the second reply.
