Some applets fail to run after installing jre 1.5/5.0

Question

Hi,
I have a big problem. After installing java runtime environment 5.0 / 1.5, some java applets from sites no longer work. I can view certain java applets, but strangely, some applets do not work. For example, when I try to log into the Hushmail account <www.hushmail.com>, the applet fails to load properly. I enabled tracing and logging and this is the output from the console:
basic: Registered modality listener

security: JSS package is not found
security: JSS is not configured

Strangely, there is a message "JSS package is not found" from the console output above. What is this error and how do I rectify the problem so that I can view all applets without any problems?
This is my system configuration:
Windows 2000 Professional Service Pack 4
Java Runtime Environment 1.5
Mozilla 1.7.3

Probably due to Mozilla configuration, see this search:
