The National Weather Service applet fails to load its resources completely. The problem isn't specific to 6u7 release, rather it is also intermittently reproducible in earlier 6ux versions. Experimenting with the latest jre 6u10-b25 (both classic plug-in and new plug-in), the applet is loaded in a cleaner fashion and more images fetching. There's obviously an improvement in 6u10. This bug is filed to see if there's something we can pinpoint and backport from 6u10.

Tested jre: 6u7-b05/ 6u6-b02
       browser: IE 7/ FF 2.x
       OS: Vista(sp1)/XP-pro(sp2)


Steps to reproduce:

1) Install jre 6u7-b05 onto the test system
2) Using IE 7 or FF 2.x to load this applet
