Java applet crashes IE 6 (Windows XP SP2) when running on 1.5.0_14.
The problem is not reproducible on 1.5.0_13.
The problem is very well reproducible, although not strictly, both on
single and dual processor machines.
1. Test case
------------
Please run attached test case AHS.zip on 1.5.0_14:
- uncompress AHS.zip
- cd AHS
- open StartaAHS.html in IE
1. click on the link to start AHS.
a separate window will open.
it shows a single tab named "��rendeinfo"
2. close windows after initiated
- Repeat steps 1+2 until IE will crash (10 - 15 iterations most likely are enough)
