** Description changed:

- When downloading and installing sun's proprietary Java package following the guide on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats, I'm unable to close the java applet / browser window using the window's 'X'. This happens on www.map24.com when I maximize the result map window using the toolbar of the applet. When I use the applet's controls, everything works (except closing the windows, which is not provided by the applet).
- Also, minimize and maximize using the controls next to 'X' work fine. The window also closes when the original browser windows is pointed to a different site or closed.
+ Any implementation of Java (be it Sun's or the OpenJDK) suffers from
+ this bug. Some Java Applet Windows cannot be closed when clicking on the
+ close button (X) on the Window Manager title bar.
  
- Not a very serious bug, rather an inconvenient one.
+ This bug only affects Linux distributions. On MS Windows, the Applets
+ work normally and they can be closed at will as any other window.
  
- OS: Ubuntu dapper (using kubuntu as original installer)
- Browser: firefox 3.0.1
- Java: Sun JRE 1.5.0.06 i586
+ Sites where this bug happens:
+ http://www.chat-avenue.com/
+ www.elchat.com
+ ...and pretty much any Applets that do not have an explicit close function within themselves.

+ OS: Ubuntu Hardy Heron
+ Browser: Firefox 3.0.1
+ Java: OpenJDK Java runtime
