Public bug reported:

On the website, the applet cannot be loaded using OpenJDK :
http://www.lemonde.fr/jeux/article/2001/01/22/les-mots-croises-de-philippe-dupuis_139043_3280.html

I think the problem comes from the website, which declares the archive as a 
.zip instead of a .jar (which is quite strange) :
<applet codebase="http://www.lemonde.fr/motscroises/"; archive="crossword.zip" 
code="Crossword.class" height="490" width="475">

However, it appears that sun-java can run it (I asked someone to test on
WinXP), so I think this special case could be handled in openjdk
(icedtea6-plugin).

** Affects: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu)
