Is there a simple tool to make .cab file to speed up applet downloading?
I wrote a Swing applet. It can be displayed on IE correctly. However, download the applet takes quite a while. Is there a simple tool (instead of the whole pkg of Microsoft's SDK) which can be used to make a .cab file to speed up IE download? Thank you for your help!

> put your classes in a .jar file.
Thank you for your reply! However, I was told that IE does not recognize jar (and I could not notice a difference with or without using jar). Some one said that cab file should be used for IE. Do you (or some one else) knows how to create cab file and if it will really help?
Thanks!

Jars should work in IE, mine do. If you want something else use winzip to put all your classes in one archive, then use< applet code=main archive=myjava.zip >as far as I know, WinZip makes and IE takes any sort of archive, jar,zip,cab etcShish
