The problem is no longer present when using Intrepid beta, Firefox 3 (3.0.3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu1) and icedtea-gcjwebplugin (1.0-1ubuntu3) on a 2.6.27-6-generic i686 kernel and the latest release of the applet (cbt_bidt_3_5_5_sign.jar).
It is difficult to tell wether the problem is fixed by changes in icedtea-gcjwebplugin and/or openjdk or changes in the applet itself.
