Personally (I can't speak for others), I do not allow my
browsers to run Java: It's too risky. Were I on an intRAnet
with applets served up internally I'd be willing to run those,
but on the wild and lawless intERnet? Not for me, thanks.
So, for me (again, I can't speak for others), applets on
the Internet might as well not be there at all. Your applet,
however useful it might be, is of no use to me because I
can't/won't run it. To reach a wider audience, I think you
need to adopt a different technology.
Just a data point, personal opinion, the Secretary will
disavow all knowledge, etc., etc.

HotJava. ;-(
(Only partly in jest. Your problem really isn't "Does such a
browser exist?" but "Will the people who want to use my site run
such a browser, in an applet-accepting configuration?")
