Allow me to clarify what I meant... IE 5 does not do Java(tm). There is a
"byte code virtual machine" within IE5, which does actually recognize many
(maybe all) of the same bytecodes as are defined in the Java Virtual
Machine Spec, and there is a method library attached to this VM which
contains some of the same APIs as the Java Language; HOWEVER, it is not a
JAVA VM by the definition of Java Technology, as presented by the trademark
holders, Sun Microsystems Inc.
