I can tell you that its the Java Applet thats causing you the problem as firefox is reporting that the applet has failed.

load: class COM.Actinic.Catalog.EA.class not found.

Im sure someone will point you in the right direction though.

The right direction is to ditch the java applet and get an SSL certificate installed on the website.

The java applet was really only a fudge for when SSL wasn't readily available or supported. These days SSL is commonplace and it's far better to use it than the java applet.

SSL avoids these kind of problems too.
