      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :


      ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
      Windows XP

      EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
      java version 1.4.2_06

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      I made a typo entering the java runtime params in the control panel. What I wanted was
      -Xms4m -Xmx256m

      what I actually typed was
      -Xms4m -Xms256m

      visit a page that uses java and the browser dissapears! No idea if it errored or what - behavior was exactly the same as when I click on the "x" button on the top right of the browser window

        Fix the params & everything works fine

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      add the following to the java plugin runtime parameters
      -Xms4m -Xms256m

      view a web page that uses java and the browser exits
      [browser being IE, firefox & mozilla)

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      I expected at least an error message or a popup
      What I didn't expect was the browser disappearing!

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
      fix the typo
