*****  His information clearly states which browsers and what version of
Java is required. If you chose to try first and read later................

Direct your frustrations to the corporations where it belongs. The problem
is unique to how MS wrote their champion bit of garbage, IE to work (or not
work) with Java. Scream (or direct your *napalm*) at MS. 

Netscape with an older version of the real  Java does NOT mess up your screen.

Here's a quote from another digest and topic which nicely illustrates my
point about individual hobbyists vs. crass commercial entites who fail to
deliver...

*****  So why all the sour grapes???!!! You could have communicated long ago.

In fact you've found a MUCH faster response than you could expect from any
commercial entity.

I sympathize with the issue you brought up, it just didn't apply to this
situation.
