I could hunt that behaviour down to this entry in the preferences.xml (which most probably was put there by the Mappaint-Styles-plugin):
{{{
    <map>
      <tag key='title' value='JOSM internal, no labels'/>
      <tag key='active' value='false'/>
      <tag key='ptoken' value='standard without labels'/>
      <tag key='url' value='http://maps.tilusnet.com/josmdata/elemstyles_nolabels.xml'/>
    </map>
}}}

After removing this lines JOSM started normally. 
A test showed that after two minutes JOSM would start with the codeblock above not being removed.

I'd suggest to shorten the timeout of remote elements being used in JOSM if that is possible. There won't be many people waiting two minutes for JOSM to start...
