There is nothing wrong with Applets. They are nice. Size is really not a concern unless they are BIG. Mine is 43KB. If they are dial-up then what they get they expect. Yes they need the JVM. Point them to the manual download do not set the applet to install the JVM on demand. That is rude.

Applets do NOT work in FrontPage. They work over http when the applet is viewed in a browser embedded in a web page (.htm).

If you have troubles viewing the applet over the web that is served from your machine then you just need to make sure the files are where expected (error would be nice if not) and you have Sun's or Microsoft's JVM installed. There is a Microsoft JVM for Windows XP:
