The Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (MSJVM) is a discontinued proprietary Java virtual machine from Microsoft. It was first made available for Internet Explorer 3 so that users could run Java applets when browsing on the World Wide Web. It was the fastest Windows-based implementation of a Java virtual machine for the first two years after its ...
A Java applet that was created as supplementary demonstration material for a scientific publication A Java applet that uses 3D hardware acceleration to visualize 3D files in .pdb format downloaded from a server [1] Using applet for nontrivial animation illustrating biophysical topic (randomly moving ions pass through voltage gates) [2] Using a ...
Java applets were used to create interactive visualizations and to present video, three-dimensional objects and other media. Java applets were appropriate for complex visualizations that required significant programming effort in a high level language or communications between applet and originating server.
J/Direct was a technology included in some versions of Microsoft Java Virtual Machine, which allowed direct calls into the Windows API. J/Direct was specific of Microsoft's Virtual Machine, in replacement of the standard Java Native Interface (JNI). A Java program which used J/Direct would not run on platforms other than Microsoft Windows.
The word applet was first used in 1990 in PC Magazine.

Plouf's Java IRC (PJIRC) [1] is a web-based open-source IRC client that is written in Java. [2] Any web browser that supports the Java Runtime Environment, or an alternative Java interpreter, can use the applet. [3] Many IRC networks have a public installation of the applet for their network. [2]
Since Java 1.7, Oracle's JRE for Windows includes automatic update functionality. Before the discontinuation of the Java browser plug-in, any web page might have potentially run a Java applet, which provided an easily accessible attack surface to malicious web sites. In 2013 Kaspersky Labs reported that the Java plug-in was the method of choice ...
IcedTea-web provides a free-software Java Web browser plugin. It was the first to work in 64-bit browsers under 64-bit Linux, a feature Sun's proprietary JRE later addressed. [27] This makes it suitable to enable support for Java applets in 64-bit Mozilla Firefox, among others.
