Exception occurred during event dispatching:
sun.applet.AppletSecurityException: checkaccess.thread

When exception messages appear, mouse clicks may become slow to update and some information panels may not display properly.

Workaround: To improve the responsiveness of the mouse and complete the installation process, close the HotJava Console window. Some information panels may not update properly, but this does not affect the installation process. Web Start installs the products that you selected, however, the description may be inaccurate if you have moved the cursor over more than one product.

To prevent the exception messages, do not open the HotJava Console window before or during installation.
