My Cisco 877 router provides a Java applet in a web interface for 
configuring and monitoring the router. This is Cisco SDM version 2.3.

On one notebook PC this works fine. On another desktop PC I get a 
StackOverflowError and the applet never opens it's window.

Previously I used SDM Express, which worked fine on the desktop PC which 
doesn't run SDM. (I upgraded SDM Express to SDM in the router in order 
to be able to configure router features not supported in SDM Express.)

Both PCs run Windows XP. Both have a Sun Java Runtime (JRE). I have 
tried both IE 7 and Mozilla Firefox 1.5.

The notebook has JRE 1.5.0_06.
The desktop has JRE 1.5.0_09, I tried upgrading to 1.5.0_10, same problem.

The Java console reports ...

The last mesage is repeated many times, possibly hundreds.

I am not sure if this is a bug in the Cisco SDM applet (which works fine 
on the laptop) or in my JRE (which ran SDM Express OK).

Any suggestions?
