A Java capable browser is a web browser that can download Java code
and execute it.  At the moment there is only one Java capable browser
called HotJava from Sun for Solaris and NT (Mac, Win 95 supposedly
soon).  Netscape has signed an agreement with Sun to put Java in their
browser as well (we'll see).  The Java language is designed to be
safe when loaded over the network - you can safely download a web
document with Java Applets in it without worrying that your hard drive
will get scrogged or that information on your system will be read by
anyone out on the net.
