Have you done the work-around for the Java Plug-In bug described in the
READE:
NOTE: There is a bug in Java Plug-In that prevents standard extension
classes, such as Java 3D, from being loaded. Java Plug-In currently
looks only in the lib directory of C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\Jre\1.2
and fails to look in the lib\ext directory. The solution is to copy
the following four Java 3D jar files from
C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\Jre\1.2\lib\ext to
C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\Jre\1.2\lib:
j3daudio.jar
j3dcore.jar
j3dutils.jar
vecmath.jar
Hopefully this will fix things for you.
