The matter is that version of Java VM in Navigator is slightly different
;-) from yores and is incompatible for Swing-applet running at all. You
may update Navigator's VM for newest. Sun has a product named Java
Plug-in. It could be found at
http://java.sun.com:80/products/plugin/index.html.
I have tried it under Win32 and it was working properly. But the major
problem in Linux case is that there aren't ports of Java Plug-in
available :-(

P.S. As for me, Swing-like applets is most slowest browser solution that
I seen in my life. Try servlets. Of course those not so nice as Swing,
but more applicable in real life.
