Avail Desktop Instructions
Introduction
Avail Desktop is a Java Applet designed to create the look and feel of a windows desktop on a web page.  It is very secure and cannot access any information on the computer which launches it.  Each icon on the desktop corresponds to a valid URL web address.  Click on the icon and the address will be launched in three settings: Replace the current window, Create a new window, Create a window in a frame.  The default is to create a new window.
