Applets don't specify the version they want, so I would expect you
would always get the latest 32 version. There is usually just one
instance of the JVM running. So all Appets would have to use the same
version.

Java Web Start works outside the browser.  The JNLP file specifies
which JVM you want, so I would expect the request to be honoured.

You could find out  by running Wassup which will run as an Applet
under various JVMs http://mindprod.com/products1.html#WASSUP
