Bug description:
  Binary package hint: icedtea-java7-plugin

  I am trying to access an applet from http://www.jigzone.com. The
  applet fails to load with error:

  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
  	at sun.applet.PluginMain.start(PluginMain.java:211)
  	at sun.applet.PluginMain.main(PluginMain.java:73)

  
  I am running Hardy Alpha 6 (firefox3, icedtea-java7). The applet works just fine on my Gutsy box (firefox2, sun6).

  I have attached the complete console output
