java version "1.3.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0_01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0_01, mixed mode)

java -cp ;c:/jars/module1.jar;c:/jars/module2.jar <fullclassname>

the java runtime also looks for classes in the current directory if the -cp
parameter starts with a semicolon.

For easy modification of the classpath, in my batch files I create my 'cp'
variable in the following way:

set cp=
set cp=%cp%;C:/jars/errorhandler.jar
set cp=%cp%;C:/jars/logger.jar
set cp=%cp%;C:/jars/properties.jar
set cp=%cp%;C:/jars/rservice.jar

The java command then is:
java -cp %cp% <fullclassname>

With the above building of the cp variable, the variable starts with a
semicolon, yielding the reported bug.
