OK, you're on track. Check that file from the machine that is causing 
the problem. When you go to that exact URL with that browser, do you get 
a login message from the server?  When I go there, I get a log in 
screen. Ah, so I'm betting only one of your browsers is passing on the 
secure password to the server when Jmol makes that call. Something like 
that. I'm going to change this error message to display the first 1000 
characters of the file. That should be very helpful in general. Yes, ok, 
that's done. Jmol 11.1.12 will have this feature. When you look in the 
log file you will see the first three lines of the file. Also, this will 
display in the applet window. (a feature of 11.1)
