J2SE Version (please include all output from java -version flag):
  java version "1.4.2-beta"
  Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-beta-b14)
  Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-beta-b14, mixed mode)

Does this problem occur on J2SE 1.3, 1.4 or 1.4.1?
  NO, works fine with 1.4.1

Operating System Configuration Information (be specific):
  Microsoft Windows XP with IE

Bug Description:
  can't use the apache SAX xml parser because it requests access to the
  entityExpansionLimit property, and that generates a security exception
  (see below). This works fine with 1.4.1:
