The link that you provided doesnt work for me (is this an internal-only 
link?). I did a little bit of digging about app.releaseNotesURL and 
app.vedorURL and I dont think these errors are related to the plugin. 
Take a look at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=596428. 
On the other hand, the grey box is probably a bug.

Can you please file a bug at http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/ ? It 
would be great if you could post the code (or at least provide the class 
files/jars) for the applet. Could you please run firefox as
$ ICEDTEAPLUGIN_DEBUG=true firefox
[substitute iceweasel as required]
and attach the contents of ~/.icedteaplugin/java.stdout and 
~/.icedteaplugin/java.stderr to the bug report? Feel free to edit these 
files to remove any sensitive information (like passwords).

Thanks,
Omair
