      Tested with Kestrel-linux build 1.3.0rc1-b11 on RedHatLinux6.1J and 6.1J update


      Clicking a link to an applet demo with setting Plug-in disabled,
      (not checking "Enable Java Plugin" on Java Plug-in Control Panel)
      Netscape is hung with Netscape logo spinning(indicating it is in the middle of downloading) and error message such as "Warning: Select failed; error code 9" is displayed on terminal repeatedly and Netscape needs to be killed.


      To reproduce,
      1. Run jdk1.3/jre/package to insatll Plug-in1.3 on Linux.
      2. Launch Java Plug-in Control Panel ($HOME/.netscape/java/ControlPanel).
      3. Disabling Java Plug-in on Java Plug-in Control Panel.
      4. Click any demo on
      http://sqesvr.eng.sun.com/deployment1/ws/demos/1.2.1/applets.html


      Sometimes the problem does not occur, and a message such as below on terminal
      and Netscape is not hung. This seems to be correct action.

      %Plugin: Plugin is not enabled or Java VM process has died.
      Could not start java vm

      on the other hand On RedHat6.1J the message appears an error dialog.
