Since the browser caches HTML pages in a history list of some type, every you time leave and return to the HTML page, the applet will be activated ( start() ) and deactivated ( stop() ) respectively. Therefore you can try clearing the cached pages which should force the embedded JVM to call the destroy() on the applet. Or you can uses JavaScript to clear the browser cached history list if the browser supports JavaScript.
