Error: Need to start() me before you can write

When I downloading code in Netbeans, I get the following error:

Anyone ever seen this?

Thanks.

I'm going to bump this because I also get the same error and am unsure why.

Which platform is this on?

This looks like a bug in my starting a thread at wrong time.

Does it happen all the time or just sometimes?

I MAY have found the race condition, hope the problem goes away with this next release.
