That explanation definitely makes sense (now that the penny has dropped as to what "native library" means!), and indeed someone else contacted me off-list with the same suggestion. Thanks for this. Just to clarify one point (Java is all a bit mystifying for me). When you say "the site only has Win32 code", I assume the point is that the site is trying to make use of a Windows-only native library on my PC, and doesn't have (or isn't making use of) any capability of using the equivalent GNU/Linux library that may be present on my machine. Is that correct? Apart from that, I think I have now found the information I was looking for from this list. Thanks to all those who replied, and thanks to the rest of you for your patience. This issue has been baffling me for months, and this is the first place I've found any useful pointers to a solution. John [Please cc me in any response.
