I need to do online banking and would like to use java applets such as the chat.yahoo.com. I have tried both mozilla and netscap with suns current java-runtime and have found them to be extermetly unreliable. I wanted to switch from windows to unix for about 2 yrs but could never find a solution to java, and that remains the case after 3 yrs. Why is good java support in browsers so difficult in unnix, seeing how java started its life in the unix community. I cat believe windows and internet explorer is actually better at java then unix. Any good lightweight browsers other than netscape, mozilla or opera that work with java? Thanks in ./adv
