Like images, Java applets are linked into a Web page from outside.  Even if 
you (or your browser) saves the applet code as well as the HTML code, it is 
possible that the link still points at the original (on the Web) so that 
once you disconnect, it can't be found any more.  The answer is to look at 
the page's 'source code' on your machine.  Sure you won't understand it 
all, but you'll probably be able to recognise the references that link to 
external bits.  First make sure that you do have a local copy of the code 
(as Chris said - he's obviously looked at the particular page, but I 
haven't - that'll be a file with a .jar extension; I'm sure he's right that 
it is wcup.jar).  Then make sure that the link in your local copy of 
applet.htm actually does point at your local copy of wcup.jar (edit your 
copy of applet.htm).  I'm guessing that since it doesn't load, your copy of 
applet.htm is still pointing to the original code file.

Hope that helps,

Roger
