FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.1_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_02-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_02-b06, mixed mode)

FULL OS VERSION :
Japanese
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
This problem occurs only when the user name consists of Japanese characters. If a Romanized user name is used, the problem does not occur. My user name is seki (in Japanese characters); therefore, my user directory is C:\Documents and Settings\seki (seki is in Japanese characters).

The symptoms are:

At the top of the console, my user directory is shown as C:\Documents and Settings\???<<.

Items such as .jpi_cache and .plugin141_02.trace are not in my user directory but are instead in a directory called C:\Documents and Settings\<strange characters>. The 'strange characters' consist of a dot, superscript 1, dot, double less than sign.

Writing a file to user.home (and user.dir) fails.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Log into Windows with a Japanese user name. Run an applet and look at the console. You can also print System.getProperty("user.dir").

I was unable to create a file in either user.home or user.dir.


ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
Here is my console for a signed applet that prints the user.home and user.dir values.
