Description
A DESCRIPTION OF THE REGRESSION :
  Category: java_plugin:other

When an applet is embedded on a html page and this html page is being reloaded (via HTML meta-redirect) while the plugin is still waiting for user input (such as accepting a hostname mismatch warning or selecting a ssl client certificate) the browser freezes.

REPRODUCIBLE TESTCASE OR STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1) Open the website with the applet: https://www.axian.de/test/forwardbug/applet.html
2) Wait for at least 15 sec (count to 100), then confirm the security warning.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
package test.applet;

import java.applet.Applet;

public class TestApplet extends Applet {

	// void applet

}
---------- END SOURCE ----------

RELEASE LAST WORKED:
5.0 Update 1

RELEASE TEST FAILS:
mustang-beta

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
After 15 sec the user gets redirected to page #2. When doing this the plugin should terminate correctly as there is no applet on page #2.
ACTUAL -
The browser freezes.
