No, it's a Java applet, keep up.

Ya, I agree. I wonder if they can hear their hard drives spinning madly while someone is poaching their tax return info.

Not too bad for me, It puts me near the runway of the airport about a mile and a half away.

Java runs in a platform independant sandbox, its decently secure, however if there was a bug in the JVM allowing applets to get out of said sandbox your mac would easily be toast, as well as any other computer, because the JVM is platform independent and bytecode outside of a sandbox runs the same on every system (though firewalls/AV and permissions can limit its access on any system).How do ya like dem apples?

@jo42 and a junkload of othersOK just so eveyone whos complaining about the applet being wrong knows the deal, most ISPs are CHEAP, and it cost MONEY to hook into an internet backbone, large ISPs have very few locations where they hook up to the 'real' internet and small ISPs will search for a cheap place to hook up (often through another provider). This is why your ISP thats lets say based or has a major routing network server in Miami may show up as Atlanta. The other option is that there WHOIS information is wrong, which happens sometimes with smaller companies but not with the larger ones.
