I got a link exchange going with a site which is now using a Java Applet as the only navigation around the site.

All pages linked to by this applet have dropped to PR0. Which I guess is because Googlebot is blind to Java applets.

The applet itself does not function in IE, Netscape or Mozilla... but works fine in Opera. Is this a firewall issue or is it older Java they're using? Because I've seen other applets not work past commercial firewalls, although I can see other site's applets fine.... or does this mean that Opera is more vulnerable than IE?
