Error description
he problem appears to be with ToolKit.getImage(URL). Using Java 1.4.2 and 1.5, every time this call is made, the applet jar is re-downloaded from the server. Sun's workaround involves using ImageIcon and BufferedImage to create the customer cursor. Sun's URL for this bug is at: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4990532
Local fix
The Workaround is to use the workaround suggested by Sun at http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4990532
