when i open the java plug-in application, there is a list of browsers to make it
the default java application.  the list includes internet explorer, netscape 6,
and mozilla 1.  when i select mozilla and/or netscape, i get an error message. 
i am setup as administrator, so that should not be a problem.  any help would
greatly appreciated.
