I've recently developed a chat server/client program in java using
jdk1.1.1.
I'm running the server portion on a sun server machine and the client
applet on a pc using netscape 3.0.
When I run the client on my machine it works perfectly, but when one of my
cube partners attempt the same on his machine he gets this error message.

AppAccelerator(tm) 1.0.2 for Java, x86 version.

Any insight you could provide would be much appreciated. I've been
consulting with our UNIX guru with no help.
