This issue has nothing to do with cookies. If the applet is on a web
page protected by HTML realm-based authentication, you will get
multiple username and password dialogs. In a future release I hope to
add access to WebKit's cache of usernames and passwords, but until then
I can't think of any workarounds that would help you.
