I manage a web service with an applet.
My deepest condolences. Applets are a PITA.

Like what? Downloading half the records in the DB?
Quite a lot can be achieved within the standard 64
meg provided.
Now, I am unable to proivide information on
exactly what IE's prblem is, applets seem to
sprout another bug in some browser or other
every other week (you might scan the bug DB
for recent additions), but was just interested
to find out if this applet *really* needs a
browser wrapped around it. Could your clients
deal with a free floating applet? Is there
any JS/Java interaction in this applet?
If those answers are 'yes', then 'no', you
might be able to solve this quite easily using
webstart. Not only can the launch file be
configured to specify a memory requirement,
but JWS launched applets get around many of
the bugs that affect applets with a (mostly
useless) browser wrapped around them.
