	Hello All,


   I recently installed FreeBSD 2.1.5 (great OS !) and downloaded Netscape3
from netscape.com ("Unknown BSD" version). It all works well, excepted that
it won't display or run JAVA applets. The applets don't get loaded and a 
white square is displayed instead. No error messages are displayed.

   The file java_301 is installed in /usr/local/lib/netscape/ (and anyway
Netscape complains if it's not here) and java is enabled in the Options
menu. Also, it's not possible to display the JAVA console.

   Does anyone has an idea how to solve this problem ?
