JWS Start - Error Message Pop Up on Windows XP

Hello,

On Windows XP my web start app when it starts up (or is first installed as in picture below) always pops up an error message box with no further information.

If I press ok the JWS app goes ahead and works fine and as expected - so it is more of an annoyance than a showstopper. I would like to understand what causes it though.

This only happens on XP - not on Windows 7. The Windows Event logs don't indicate any issues and no errors are displayed in the Java Console (which is to be expected as I think this error dialog is not anything to do with JWS directly but more to do with XP).

Anyone else seen this?

Cheers

Mat
