Description
Build   : 'L'
OS      : 95/98 (DX6),  (NT GDI..ok)
applet  : ImageMap {/net/tapas/export1/java2d/Testing/applets11/index.html}
          (use your plugin and launch this html)
          Then select an applet like ImageMap

When viewing any applets having high color content (ie. gif/jpg) it seems to override the Windows' palette and the controls like buttons appears in wrong colors.  It seems the applets are taking more than the typical 216 allotted.

This of course is under 8bit depth.  No problems at 16/24/32 bits.
