I think this may be caused by trying to read too much entropy from the NativeSeedGenerator, which is where the code appears to hang. There is a java report for this NativeSeedGenerator is making 8192 byte read requests from entropy pool on each init. http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6998583 Which appears to be fixed in Java 6 update 24, which was released around the time the user reported the issue. Please can the user retest with a version after Java 6 update 24?
