On a win7 machine, install recently jre8 deploy build and fx 2.0.2 fcs b08.

Open IE browser and click on "Yes" on the UAC dialog if there's one.

Run a simple applet with applet tag.

At java console, you'll noticed that the java plugin from fx 2.0.2 is being used.

Since jre8 has a deploy version higher than fx 2.0.2, we should be using the java plugin from jre8 to run the applet.
