Hi Mac, 
Thank you. Might I have used one of these to identify the applet as being problematic 
before I used it?
I virus checked the download, of course, but AV doesn't look for this sort of thing.
I just feel rotten that I put it up there for other people to be stung--not that 
I have high traffic, but just the same...
Right now I'm going theough my site and deleting every applet on it. It's not my 
own machine I'm concerned about. It's what I may have stupidly done to other people.
I'd be glad of more info.
Thanks, 
Fay.
ps. I found the applet on the spigots site. Freeware, of course.
