HotJava
<World-Wide Web> A modular, extensible World-Wide Web
browser from Sun Microsystems that can execute programs
written in the Java programming language. These programs,
known as "applets", can be included (like images) in HTML
pages. Because Java programs are compiled into machine
independent bytecodes, applets can run on any platform on
which HotJava runs - currently (December 1995)

HotJava
HotJava (later called HotJava Browser to distinguish it from HotJava Views) was a modular, extensible web browser from Sun Microsystems implemented in Java. It was the first browser to support Java applets, and was Sun's demonstration platform for the then-new technology. It has since been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, the Sun Download Center was taken down on July 31, 2011, and the download link on the official site points to a placeholder page saying so.
