There is a java web start technology, jnlp, which is present in <br> every java and works in every browser, and can run applets without <br> modifications. You can take a look at information<br> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/applet_migration.html
Hope it may help to keep some old, but working applets on the web alive.
