Hello there!

There seems to happen nothing with this bug, which still persist: 9 time of 10 
FF freezes, when the Webbank applet is started. 
Java Console shows that this happens when a live-connect session is attempted.
There are numerous reports on the www about broken live-connect support under 
FF3. I also read, that the live-connect method is on the way out as a 
authentication routine. Never the less, I was under the impression the guys 
from Mozilla had the will and know-how to fix this problem. Clearly, this 
hasn't quite happened yet.
In the mean time I can announce a peculiar workaround for this bug: When 
accessing this live-connect test page
http://developer.apple.com/internet/safari/samples/ColorBlockApplet.html
not only it works correctly, but subsequently, live-connect also succeeds when 
logging into webbank. I can log in and out numerous time within the same FF 
session. As soon as I restart FF I need to load the test applet again prior to 
webbanking, otherwise FF continues to freeze.
FF under Windows XP does NOT show this strange behavior.
I hope someone here can make something out of this and maybe shed some light on 
the mechanisms.

Regards
