      java version "1.3.0_01"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0_01)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0_01, mixed mode)

      The problem I encountered was that the plugin can't find font.properties. The
      cause I believe is that java.home is screwed up in 1.3.0_01, at least on my box.

      User Home: C:\WINNT\Profiles\Chuck Kirschman
      Java Home: C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\13C255~1.0_0

      (should be c:\Progra~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.0_01)

      Therefore it can't find font.properties. As a second bug, the font.properties
      in the UserHome has to be in UserHome/lib or it won't be found. All is fine
      from the command line running as an application, as long as the JRE directory is
      specified; otherwise it uses the java.exe in win32/system, again causing the
      font.properties files not to be found (same java.home problem).

      Yes, I know that this is 2 bugs which will involve 2 different fixes, but I
      don't have time to file them seperately.

      Currently using IE version 5.00.2314.1003 on NT 4.0
