Hi Pat. Sorry for the very late reply. I hope this didnt ruin your holidays :P

When I click the link it begins loading the java applet, but never actually succeeds (even gave it a full hour to finish loading once), but my web browser locks up. I have tried it on a few separate systems (with different OSs and different browsers) to no avail....

Anyone got any ideas?

There are a couple of possible errors here. My first guess would be that it fails at getting the data from vPserver and dies a horrible death, leaving the applet just running. It's a known bug that it doesnt die the right way. One trick to indentify the problem is to enable the java console (you can do this from the java-plugin control panel. You can find this in System -> Preferences on Ubuntu-systems at least. I guess other platforms have similar tools.) You should find some more useful debuginfo there. - Klette -- Mvh Kristian Klette ?Programs for sale: Fast, Reliable, Cheap: choose two.?
