This happens in b12 PIT bundle. When errors happen in applet loading. A red x box is shown. Left click the box will pop up a java webstart style dialog showing applicaiton error with "details" and "ignore" buttons. Click "details" does nothing and probably trigger an exception in java console. The exception may be related to CR 6659532.
The following is output from console:
