I think Bill the Gate would have had his Lawyers out in force if they had:-))) The current Win/OS2 suport mainly dates back to the time that MSoft were in joint venture with IBM, and this is no longer the case.. As it stands MSoft continually alter this that or the other, seemingly to prevent just such and occurance.. Perhaps Herr Gates wants to totally control the PC based operating system world.. As it stands Win95 just isnt IMHO a stable enuff OS, WinNT is another story, but so is its price:-))) And while a lot of software houses may jump on the MS bandwagon[as usuall] that doesnt mean that their games are gonna work flawlessly under Win95, some may, some may not and some may just plain screw up the Win95 registry, to the punters ultimate cost:-( I've already seem mega complaints about interfacing sundry adaptor cards under Win95, where it insitsts on reconfiguring their addresses etc, even to ones they cant handle, until someone who knows how the registry works, edits it to reflect the coreect settings for a card... so much for PnP:-((( And a good many users cant hack editing the resgistry file without totally messing up their system...

There's no Java applets, and no Java. Only pure Javascript (which is not at all related to Java). There's no reason to desactivate Javascript in Netscape, and all majors browsers fully support Javascript since a couple of years (MSIE, Netscape,...). Anyway, I'm designing a new dual version, with automatic switch to the frames & Javascript one with 3-languages support, or to another without frames nor Javascript.
