Comment 2 Alexandr Scherbatiy 2013-03-07 13:58:02 UTC 
The exception is propagated from a user application during the application debugging.
Comment 3 Martin Entlicher 2013-03-12 16:02:11 UTC 
Reproduced. It's an applet security problem.
I've reproduced it in following steps:
1) Create an JApplet in a Java project.
2) Open applet.policy file and comment-out the second line (add a hash #)
3) Debug the applet.
4) The exception is thrown.
