Java on Mac, but update obsolete plugin audit reports Apple says it is updated

This is on a Mac
I used the Plugin "check" to make sure that all plug-ins are up-to-date.
He says that the Java plugin must be updated. Which brings me to the Java page, which says that Apple provides its own version of Java and use the Apple update. Update Apple says that the system is up-to-date.

Plugin Checker must report an error only if the Java version can be updated. It cannot exist on a mac.

This is a known bug. See the forum contributor from here:

... and the solution given in the bug report:

Try to close Firefox, delete the pluginreg.dat in the profile folder and start again. This is the problem that is described in bug 313700.

Note: Article profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data explains how to open the profile of Firefox on Mac OS folder, so that you can delete the pluginreg.dat file. Make sure to only close Firefox after you open the profile folder in the Finder.
