when a java applet, such as the game "RuneScape", is running, text entered
anywhere else (websites, urls, forms etc) that are not withing the applet, get
scrambled. Often causeing the next letter to go BEFORE the previous letter

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run java applet
2. type sentence (or anything) anywhere but the java applet

Actual Results:  
sentence became something like
enecntsw

Expected Results:  
spelled 'sentence'...

have only noticed it with the game "RuneScape". May be directly related to Jagex
Inc. or just the type off applet that game uses. Have not found another place
that does that, that I can remember.
