What to do when NetBeans fails on Win XP with "IllegalStateException: Out of bounds"?
On some systems, Netbeans fails because it cannot write to the Temp directory(C:\DOCUME1\User\LOCALS1\Temp\.
This is a problem with Windows, even though the directory seems to behave fine from Windows explorer.
Solution: Deleting and recreating the Temp directory solves the problem.
(C:\DOCUME1\User\LOKALE1\Temp\)
Applies to: NetBeans 6.x, 5.x
Platforms: Win XP
