Synopsis:
The contents of Control Panel get distorted and and some of the information disappears triggered by switching to different user screens.

You need 2 users
one with admin privileges

3) log as another user which DOES NOT have admin privileges (limited)
4) Invoke Java Control Panel (Start->Control Panel click on java icon)

Instead of displaying contents as you saw in Step (5) you only see
About
View version file about this Control Panel
All buttons and Network and Temporary setting information has disappeared.
Also the fonts have changed.
Though the sequence won't be frequently used, I'm sure there is a way to tigger this effect without changing to different users.
Something to do with repainting.
Pending Testing

I have yet to try with win2k and win98
