We have a need to sent users to one of 2 webpages depending on whether
they are using the MS JVM/1.1 or the Sun plugin/1.2+


The MSVM is obsolete.  Every build up to and including 3809 has
security problems rated as critical (by MS).  The 3810 build MSVM
(& all previous) will show the exact location of the class file
archives on the file system.

The MSVM is no longer being shipped with any windows installation,
and MS advice re the MSVM is 'identify MSVM dependent applications
and migrate them to Sun VM/.NET'.

Do your end users who are lumbered with IE a favor, by using the
nested OBJECT/EMBED form of the applet call that upgrades them
to 1.2 (..or better, the latest VM).
