I found out the problem with Java and Communicator and NT. It's not just a problem with Communicator though. The problem is with NT Service Pack 3 and running "true color" graphics mode. I switched to 65k color and it works. Interesting though I din't have any problem with IE4. Since I now have both browsers on NT I will have to do some comparisons. Derek

Derek: I had a similar problem with my installation of Comm 4.03, but on a Win95 machine. The java wouldn't load on certain pages (TheStreet.com, StockMasterPro.com). I hate to admit it, but I then resorted to the IE 3 that came on the OSR2 CD, and the pages loaded fine. I can't be a day without certain Web features, so I then downloaded IE4, accepted all the defaults, and installed. The new browser is OK, and java runs well. Last night, I downloaded Comm 4.04, and now I get an error message about unsupported classes of java but the page loads and behaves itself well nonetheless. I think this java issue needs to be resolved, und pronto! BTW, the Netscape support site says something about certain Matrox video drivers causing problems on NT4.0 machines using java. Regards, John
