Bug Description

I have just upgraded from Ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04 on a 64 bit machine.
I have added the the AllPermission to .java.policy to solve Bug #157721 comment 15.

My homebanking applet (https://www.netbank.nordea.dk/netbank/) does not start.

Starting firefox in a console, gives me the following error:
"java.lang.ClassFormatError: Incompatible magic value 1013478509 in class file netscape/javascript/JSObject".

To reproduce:
Browse to https://www.netbank.nordea.dk/netbank/, see that the applet does not start, and read console output.
Anybody should be able to load this applet, as it should present a login prompt.
