After installing JRE build H on a Windows 95 system and using IE3 for browsing
an applet, the system will crash.

Attached is the stack dump from IE3:

Randy Russell and I installed different versions of JRE (1.1.2 and 1.2.2 that
dated Jan 12, 1999) on this machine and both versions are working fine.

--------------------------

Stanley, Vijay, and I were investigating this problem and here's what we saw:

- If Vijay login to this PC everthying is working fine.
- If I login as myself (vince) and refused to let H drive to map to
  /home/vmanda/PC, but mapping to /home/vince/PC, then it's working fine.
- If I login as myself (vince) to this machine and let H drive mapping to
  /home/vmanda/PC, then system will crash when running any applets.

We noticed that the HOME environment is set to HOME=H:\PC and H drive
is mapped to /home/vmanda/PC.

Vijay and I investigated more about this bug and found out that this problem
can be reproduced on any machines regardless Win95 or Win98 (IE3 or IE4). To reproduce the problem, set up HOME variable point to a driver and that driver mapping to another user home directory (i.e, HOME=H:\PC and H is mapped to /home/vmnada) In this case, if I login and ue IE3/IE4 to run an applet, the
system will crash.
