        Platforms tested - win XP
        Browsers tested - FF, IE
        Build tested - any 6u5 build

        Steps to reproduce:
        Install JRE
        Open Java Control Panel and set java Applet Runtime parameter to -Xms256m (anything more than 96m)
        Open IE or FF browser
        Open the Java Console (Tools -> Sun Java Console)
        Browser will crash.

        Note: -Xms may not be a valid runtime parameter, but the browser should not crash. If we specify any arbitrary string value, the browser does not crash. It only crashes with -Xms(>96m) values. It's not reproducible on all the machines, but can be consistently reproduced in some of the machines.

        Machine to reproduce:
        host name - hongkong
        vnc passwd - vnc
