Mozilla 0.7 && Java support

[Kristian Rink <celestial_spirit@web.de>]

Hello everybody...
...being not sure if this is the list for that topic... Again, being
in search for a good web browser which (thanks to the admins of some
of the sites I have to visit more or less regularly) is able of
rendering Java applets. So, Netscape 4.7 works *very* unreliable on my
potato box, uses to crash or freeze frequently when trying to get
right this done. So I got back to Mozilla which I found to be a pretty
good program, but (as for what I read on Mozilla homesite same as for
what I found out when accessing the desired site with M 0.7) it's
out-of-the-box unable to handle Java applets, as well... So following
the instructions to get this plug-in installed, I downloaded the
jre.xpi from a Netscape mirror and installed it into Mozilla... Now,
trying to start Mozilla, here's what happens:

That's all... No Browser window, no error message, nothing, just six
or seven "java_vm" processes running on my system, taking 80 to 85 %
of my CPU load and almost 115M of shared mem, but *nothing* happens.
Killing those "java_vm" terminates Mozilla with an "INTERNAL ERROR".
So I am with a browser with enabled Java support now, but I can't use
it since it doesn't start anymore. :(( Can anyone give me a hint on
that? I'm really thankful for any helpful tip. :))

TIA, have a nice day.
Regards,
Kris
