   Aha. I gather that this means that the features of web sites that need to run   
   java applets won't    
   work unless a plug in is installed and that currently there is no suitable   
   plugin. I have never    
   knowingly installed a java plugin, so unless it is automatically installed, I   
   don't have one.
