JVM does not make any limit test on the number of running processes. So if you plant an applet in a server that continues creating threads in background, any client visiting that server, will go down eventually and have to force restart his/her system, in other words DoS attack on client. And notice the abbreviation, "DoS", not DOS...It stands for Denial of Service. Google about it for more info. :)
