A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Problem occurs when starting an applet.
Problem can be replicated with SDK applet samples. (see below)
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
When specifying a maximum heap size beyond a certain threshold --value differs with different Windows OS������s and plugin versions-- IE simply crashes. No events in eventlog.
see the following excert from adapted SortingDemo:

classid="CLSID:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=100>
<PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = SortItem.class />
<PARAM NAME = CODEBASE VALUE = "."/>
alt="Your browser understands the <OBJECT > tag but isn't running the applet, for some reason."Your browser is completely ignoring the <OBJECT > tag!
</OBJECT>
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
