Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to a  site running Infoview
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
results are an unending hour glass

Expected Results:  
load the Infoview applet's widgets

Im assuming this a matter of an older java windowing lib not working right with
mozilla. Like I said I do not have the problem with firefox 0.8

Is Firebird and Mozilla using the same java plugin?
You can find out by going to about:config and changing plugin.expose_full_path
to true and then going to about:plugins.  Change it back to false when you are done.
I did find bug 240323
-> Java:OJI
