Yes, if you have the java 2 plugin installed your browser is ready for Swing
applets. With that said IE nor Netscape comes default with the plugin
(except Netscape 6, during installation you will be given the opportunity to
install the plugin). But you can configure your html code to detect whether
or not the plugin is installed on IE or Netscape and direct the user to
appropriate actions (like installing the plugin). Find more info on
