Yup, the code is currently pretty simplistic in this regard. Basically it
assumes that is classloader != null, you must be an applet, or if you
aren't using WWWClassLoader you're an alien invader.
I'm trying to clean this up a bit, I'll let you know how it goes.

Nope, you've got to hack the code. Note that the "internal" class loader's
loadClass() method is a static method in class Class called 'forName()'.
