What's the nature of the program? Are you trying to connect to something? Can you post the exact error message if there is one?

well the applet is used to do a file upload from a browser. i ran it on eclipse console, and the error is: "java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect". so the applet can't even connect with the browser.

thanks for ur help!

Is your applet signed? Applets cannot connect to files on a users system, which is probably why you are receiving the connection refused.

actually it is signed, but i dont think that's the problem, because it works fine on some computers. maybe it could be about some security permissions? am quite a newbie, so i dont know the technology in depth... could you suggest some possible solutions please?
