If you see only large gray bar below the introduction page, and
couldn't get to the password point, your Java Run-time Environment (JRE)
may have problems. Please reinstall JRE version 1.4.0 or later.
If you see a gray box below the "Requirement" page for a long time, then
the Java plug-in is missing, or not working properly. If you do not have
java plug-in, or if you can run java applets and still have problems, you
need to upgrade JRE to version 1.4.0 or later. No special changes are
required with your operating system to install JRE, but you may have
to upgrade Win2k to SP2 or higher. If the problem persists after installing the correct version of JRE,
please contact your system administrator since you may not have permission
to run such web based programs on your PC.
Your input is appreciated to continually update and improve the program.
