Hi,

Is it possible that you do not have the plugin installed?  If you type
"about:plugins" in firefox's address bar, there should be an entry for "IcedTea
Java Web Browser Plugin".  If not, consult your distro's documentation for how
to install the plugin.  For example, I use fedora and there is a package
"java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin" for the plugin which is separate from the java
runtime.

If the plugin is installed, I am guessing that locate's database hasn't been
updated since the files were created. From locate's manpage:

"... locate can never report files created  after  the  most  recent
       update of the relevant database."

So if those files were just created, locate will not find them.  You can run
"updatedb" to, as you may guess, update the database which locate uses. 
Another utility you may find useful is "find", which actually examines the
filesystem hierarchy and so will find newly created files (but is usually much
slower as a result).  However, afaik the plugin is hardcoded to write them in
your user's home directory, under a hidden directory named ".icedteaplugin". 
If plugin is installed, and you started firefox as noted in previous comment,
they should be there.
