I think, it's a browser/comodo related problem.
I'm uising mostly Firefox, and after recieveing this error multiple times (google books uploader), i started Opera and it worked ok.

Maybe you need to add firefox as a trusted application or something like that

I am having this problem with XP 64bit and comodo 3.12.111745.560.  I have tried many things but none work.  About 10% of the time I can load the java.  What is the deal.  I would have thought this to have been fixed by now.  I am trying to run the jnlp directly from my desktop.

I was having this problem too. I could get one javaws application to work but others would give the same error message. As there are 32 and 64 bit binaries for javaws and various libraries I was thinking that perhaps the firewall is getting confused so I had a mess around and found a way to get all working.

The fix was to remove "sun microsystems" from the my trusted software vendors. Then to remove all entries referring to javaws.exe in Firewall Network Security (Application rules) list. After doing that setting the defence and firewall mode to "safe mode" (not training) then open up a java web start (javaws.exe) application and when the firewall popup appears select "allow" and tick the remember tick box. This should only need doing once and after that all javaws applications should work without the error.

Hope that helps someone. I still think Comodo need to look into testing this more thoroughly as there seems to be some sort of conflict when running multiple javaws apps when running Comodo.

Cheers,
Richard.
