Hi Peter,

i have installed idv(version 1.2b2) on window 2000 machine by using webstart.
And i have installed it as administrator,but users of the system cannot see it 
when they log on using their accounts.
i wonder what might be the problem?

Here are the instructions for running the IDV under webstart:

If you have webstart properly installed on the machines then, to start the IDV, just bring up
this link in a browser:
