FULL PRODUCT VERSION : Mustang b33 ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION : Windows XP SP2 A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : This has happened in every browser, with every Java release that I can remember since probably 1.1 or 1.2 (it probably happened before that but I don't remember). It happens in Mustang b33 on IE and Firefox on Windows XP, I can confirm right now. However, I believe it occurs on Linux and with other browsers. It's simple, and we've probably all encountered it. For me, it just happened when I opened a few tabs in Firefox, and all of a sudden the browser froze and I thought my computer was going to crash. It turned out one of the pages had a Java applet on it, and that freeze was so that Java could load. This is not a startup time issue, this is an issue with locking up the entire browser while loading. It's also an image issue; many people hate Java applets, and this probably has a lot to do with it. There may be a duplicate of this bug in the database, but I was surprised that I could not find one. REPRODUCIBILITY : This bug can be reproduced always. ###@###.### 2005-05-10 08:25:00 GMT
