Because safe mode inhibits some programs from loading.
Figure out which programs aren't loading then manually inhibit
or allow them selectively (e.g. using msconfig) and see if you
can avoid your symptom. E.g. if there is only one program
which is causing the problem removing it could be the solution.

<title>KB316434 - HOW TO: Perform Advanced Clean-Boot Troubleshooting in Windows XP</title>

Notice all the links to related articles at the bottom of that document.

Tip: if you have a lot of programs which you want to test and your
assumption is that there may be only one which is causing the problem
you can cut your testing time by cutting the set of inhbited programs
in half each time. E.g. that way in a set of 16 programs you could
guarantee that you could find a problem one in 4 tests instead of
a potential worst case of 16 tests (and average of 8) just doing sequential
testing. Etc.

FWIW I don't have the Sun VM and the applet seems to load for me.
The .cab file for the Java stuff doesn't expire and is cacheable
so it may help for you to try to refresh with Ctrl-F5.
If the Last modified: is correct that seems unlikely to be changed,
(e.g. I see 2001-02-20 13:28 for it) but yours could be corrupt.
Of course the other way to avoid that possibility would be to clear
your TIF. I'm not sure how I would explain how this possibility
would be related to your observation about being able to use
the site in safe mode. (I have some ideas but they are really just
uninformed speculation.)

Good luck
