Description

[mijman2]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; 1.4.1 ; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

When using USPS.com's printing label service the browser goes through the 
steps and when I get to the the part where I press print (its on a java 
applet) and then i see the java console pull up and start doing its stuff.  
About 10 seconds into it the script crashes using firefox (all other browsers 
work but I like Fire fox much better than other browsers).

I have attached a screen shot of the error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to https://sss-web.usps.com/ds/jsps/ds_labelInfo.jsp?create=true
2.create a label and follow steps as they give them to you
3. choose to pay for postage online
4. Let java aplet load and click print
5. BOOM firefox fails ;(

Actual Results:  
Screen shot is attachted with error i get every single time

Expected Results:  
to print label and return me to a page with confirmation and label number on 
it.

Do you have Java 1.5.0_02 installed
1.4 versions are quite notorious crashers

I do have Java 1.5.0_02 installed, and I have been trying to get talkbalk
working, but it wont pop up like it is supposed to after the crash....

Any ideas?

pure virtual calls use abort() instead of crashing. there's nothing for talkback
to catch.

[mijman2]

Ok...

Is there any other information I can get for you so that I can help you to fix
the problem?

reporter "UPS has altered the way that their service works and the process that caused the error is no longer present."

so closing invalid (nothing to test, etc)
