Mike,

Can you do me a favor and disable the IcedTeaPlugin (at least 
temporarily) and see if the crash still happens?  We've had other people 
report issues with using MythBrowser with the IcedTeaPlugin, and it 
seems to be causing problems for you, too.

If you don't get crashes without IcedTeaPlugin, it would be great if you 
could also test with the Oracle JDK plugin instead of the IcedTeaPlugin.

Otto K (since you mention on IRC having crashes that seemed to be 
related to IcedTeaPlugin), were you using mythwelcome, too?  Have you 
seen any more crashes since switching to the Sun^H^H^HOracle JDK plugin?

Thanks,
Mike
