Java SE (Java Platform, Standard Edition)

We have upgraded our desktops (win2K and WinXP) to JRE 1.4.2_06 and are running a java applet via an HTTPS call and we get the exception error listed below. We do not get this error when running HTTP, nor do we get it when we step back to JRE 1.3.13 or remove Sun Java all together (and use MS JVM). Our server certs are good, as evidenced by the success with prior releases of Sun Java(or Microsoft's release). What else would cause this?
