That is when you use Netscape (no problem with IE) and you use a tool (like Sybase's PowerJ) that will build for you a custom jar file with your applet code plus the pieces of swing that you actually use. That makes for a much shorter load time, but some pieces of swing don't work well any more (other parts work fine). In my case the JMenu started adding a bar at the bottom of each tear-off menu with something about signing. bruno
