Here is a desciption of how to cause the error.


Just unzip these files (see bugtraq attachments), With EWT, JLE and JDK in your classpath, run the
appletviewer on the oracle\bali\jle\demo\jledemo.html file. As soon as the
demo starts, you can crash the appletviewer (in NT 4.0) by simply dragging
your mouse in the main demo area. Running the appletviewer with the
"-J-nojit" option does not crash it.

JDK1.1.7H no longer crashes on this bug. Instead, it prints a console
message:
A nonfatal internal JIT(3.00.063(x)) error 'low level exception(c0000005)'
has
occurred in :
  'oracle/bali/jle/tool/BoundsTool.processMouseDragged
(Loracle/bali/jle/event/JLEEvent;)V': Interpreting method.
  Please report this error in detail to

I found dragging into the area didn't cause problems but clicking on the components did.
