Webstart

This program can be executed to run locally on your computer using the Java WebStart technology. The download size to start the program is approximately 1 MByte.

• If an error is issued during WebStart it is quite likely that your Java version is too old. The program uses features of Java 1.6 (SE 6).
• If you do not have a Java Runtime Environment version 1.6 or higher installed, or if you are working on Solaris/Linux and never previously used Java WebStart, please follow these installation instructions.
• Java WebStart might complain that it cannot verify the digital signature. Our certificate is signed by Deutsche Telekom Root CA 2 which has been added to the trusted certificates since Java Version 6 Update 11.
• If webstart doesn't work for you, you can alternatively run it locally (see below).
