Java applets causing browser crash

I use both Firefox 2.0.0.4 and MSIE 6, and I'm having the same issue in both browsers.

Java applets cause either browser to close as if they were shutdown. I was using the JRE 1.5.x version of Java, but I have recently upgraded to the 1.6.x client, but still have the same issue.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the client, but this has not helped either. Might anyone have any suggestions to help alleviate this issue?

Thanks in advance =)

Have you tried the most recent update of java 6 (update 1 at http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp)?

Also, there has been a compatibility problem with firefox 2.0.xx and java se 6 because of an incorrect maxVersion string. More details and a workaround are at

These may not be causing your problem; if not, post more details or send a pointer to an example applet.
