Java Applets cannot connect to the same host they were loaded from. They run on the client machine as a local program. I know this because I attempted to run an applet and have it connect to a mysql server the lived on the web server.

if an applet is launched from naturestreast.com it can connect to naturestreast.com. The only time it cannot connect to that server is when there is a firewall or proxy getting in the way.
It couldn't connect using localhost as the domain name of theThis is probably what caused you to tear your hair out. For the applet localhost means the client computer and not the server that it was launched from.
