JDK 1.5.0_05 won't load applets from the Internet?

I'm setting up a new PC with a brand-new installation of Windows XP and
Fedora Core 3 (each with all the latest updates).
I'm having trouble with the Java plug-in: it won't load any applets
from the Internet (from the local filesystem works fine). I'm behind a
SOCKS v4 proxy; the browsers and DNS are configures appropriately and
surfing the net works fine, using Mozilla and IE under Windows and
using Mozilla under Linux -- but trying to load a page with an applet
just displays the pretty coffee mug image where the applet should be,
and when I try to leave the page, the browser hangs, presumably because
the JVM is stuck trying to download the applet.
I tried reconfiguring the gateway to use plain NAT, so I could take the
proxy out of the picture, but this did not fix things.
I never had problems like these with JDK 1.4.2.*, but with 1.5.0_05, I
just can't get it to work at all. Web Start doesn't work either -- just
sits there "checking for latest version" indefinitely.
I have Java configured to use the browser's settings; configuring the
proxy settings manually makes no difference. (Of course when I use NAT
on the gateway, there is no proxy involved at all, but that does not
work either.)
N.B. The applets themselves do not appear to be the problem -- I tried
some really simple ones, including samples from the Java Tutorial;
nothing even gets pulled across the network.
I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this -- I'm stumped!
Thanks,
