VNC fails to start

Hi,

I'm trying to access my computer at home by using VNC through Firefox.  I just
changed my router settings last night so that my internal IP is static and
updated the port forwarding table to reflect the IP.  I also use ssh and can
connect to ther computer no problem via ssh but when trying to connect to the
server via Firefox, I get the Java loading screen then it fails with a message
in the status bar saying "Loading Java Applet Failed".

I'm fairly certain I've set everything up correctly because I was able to VNC to
the machine from itself by using my external IP.

Am I missing something here?  Thanks.
