Contact EJB from Applet

Question

Hi all!
Need urgent help. We try to contact an session ejb ( deployed to the OC4J - Server ). but it hangs , while creating the InitialContext !!! No exception, the programm stops only, while creating the new initialContext...
It works great, when connecting the ejb from an application, but NOT from an applet. Is there somebody out there, having a solution for that problem ?? Or Somebody know an example, where an applet connects an EJB ??
Please help.
For further information : the source code :
System.out.println("BEGIN getInitialContext() ...");
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://***.***.***.***/Server");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "******");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "*****");
try {
System.out.println(" BEGIN Create InitialContext");
javax.naming.InitialContext ic = new javax.naming.InitialContext(env);
System.out.println(" END Create InitialContext");
System.out.println("END getInitialContext() ...");
return ic;
} catch (Exception e) {
throw e;

could this be the reason, you don'y say what browser you are using.
From IBM alphaworks site: http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com
RMI for IE4 installs the missing Remote Method Invocation (RMI) support for the Microsoft Java virtual machine, thus enabling RMI for all Java applications that use the Microsoft Java virtual machine.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 (IE 4.0) is one of the applications that uses Microsoft Java. Once installed, this package enables IE 4.0 to run applets that use RMI; such applets include the Java Management Applications for the IBM Nways Manager products.
