Hi Tom--

    Browser "cookies" aren't the only problem.  I don't use a
Java-enabled browser, because of the high probability of picking up a
malicious applet from some amateur web page.  The so-called Java applet
security isn't; at least not yet.  See, for example, the article on the
subject in the November, 1996, issue of DDJ.  There is a later piece on
the subject in the January, 1997, issue of BYTE.

    Regards,
