This error seems to happen more or less randomly.
The more jardiffs are requested during a  jnlp resources download the more 
likely it is.

SUGGESTED FIX Modify DiskCache.getTempCacheFile to create unique filenames. ###@###.### 2004-11-11 17:01:54 GMT see: http://web-east.east/www/webrevs/andy/1.6.0/6194024/ ###@###.### 2004-11-11 17:32:53 GMT
