Hi,
I dont understand why your JPasswordField is active. I have been successfully
using it both in appletviewer, applet and application. here is the part of
code, may be its useful:

public class Applet2 extends JApplet {
 boolean isStandalone = false;
//Get a parameter value

 public String getParameter(String key, String def) {
  return isStandalone ? System.getProperty(key, def) :
      (getParameter(key) != null ? getParameter(key) : def);
 }

 //Construct the applet

 public Applet2() {
 }
//Initialize the applet

 public void init() {
  try {
  jbInit();
  }
  catch (Exception e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
  }
 }
 static {
   try {
 //    //UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new
com.sun.java.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel());
 //    //UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new
com.sun.java.swing.plaf.motif.MotifLookAndFeel());
     UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new
com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel());
   }
   catch (Exception e) {}
 }
//Component initialization

 private void jbInit() throws Exception {
   UserLogin up = new UserLogin();
   this.getContentPane().add(up);
  this.setSize(400,300);
 }
//Get Applet information

 public String getAppletInfo() {
  return "Applet Information";
 }
//Get parameter info

 public String[][] getParameterInfo() {
  return null;
 }
}

class UserLogin extends JPanel {
  JPanel pnlTop = new JPanel();
  GridLayout gridLayout1 = new GridLayout(2,2,5,4);
    JLabel lblUser = new JLabel("User Name");
    JTextField txtUser = new JTextField("");
    JLabel lblPassword = new JLabel("Password");
    JPasswordField txtPassword = new JPasswordField("");
  JPanel pnlBottom = new JPanel();
  FlowLayout flowLayout1 = new FlowLayout();
    JButton btnOK = new JButton("OK");
    JButton btnCancel = new JButton("Cancel");

 public UserLogin() {
   try { init(); } catch (Exception x) { }
  }

 private void init() throws Exception {
    //pnlTop
    pnlTop.setLayout(gridLayout1);
    pnlTop.add(lblUser);
    pnlTop.add(txtUser);
    pnlTop.add(lblPassword);
    pnlTop.add(txtPassword);
    //pnlBottom
    pnlBottom.setLayout(flowLayout1);
    pnlBottom.add(btnOK);
    pnlBottom.add(btnCancel);
    //Add pnls
    this.add(pnlTop,BorderLayout.CENTER);
    this.add(pnlBottom,BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    //getContentPane().pack();//reduce to preferred sizes
    txtUser.requestFocus();

    //Event Listeners
    btnOK.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        btnOK_actionPerformed(e);
      }
    });
    btnCancel.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        btnCancel_actionPerformed(e);
      }
    });
  }

  void btnOK_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    txtUser.setText("OK");
  }
  //Cancel
  void btnCancel_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    setVisible(false);
  }
}
