It's probably not straight Java, in fact it may be done in J++.
I actually went there and tried to ask the operator what the applet was 
written in but they didn't reply. I think the operator isn't a human until 
you enter a Domain Name. Oh well. That's just my guess. Have you tried 
opening that applet in a Netscape browser?

I've written chat apps like that but not for a browser. I did one in VB6 
using winsock control for TCP. You could also do a cool one in vb6 or 
vb.net using MSMessageQueueing. I am learning ASP.NET now so maybe down 
the road I will figure out how to do a browser version....

hey that just gave me an idea....

see ya
