Hello,

I saw something that might be interesting to you:

We ran an applet (java 1.1.6) on Win NT 4.0 SP3 within IE 4.01.

We called

System.exit(0);

and this closed our applet-frame as well as IE window.
BTW it closed all open explorer windows, too.

I donοΏ½t think that this is what "System.exit(0)" is supposed to do, but at
least it is what it does.


Alex.
