Is there any way to make Java 1.2 work correctly in MSIE 7? When I
install Java 1.2 MSIE 7 uses it, but dies shortly after starting any Java
applet.

Pardon my asking but is this a Java other than Sun Java? If not, you may be having issues because Sun Java is up to 6.0 Update 1 (1.6.0_r1).

I have an old application that requires the Sun Java 1.2 for compatibility
purposes.

It works fine with MSIE 6, but unfortunately with MSIE 7 the entire browser
just disappears.

That version of Java is not compatible with IE 7. If you need to use
that version of Java - which is insecure in today's environment - don't
expect IE 7 to work.

Technically the new Java should be backwards compatible anyway. If the people who made the program wrote the code to verify only one version of Sun Java, that wasn't a good move since Java is always updating.

I have a single old application that requires Java 1.2. It's an
administrative interface for a device, so I don't have a lot of flexibility
about it.

Is there any browser that will successfully a) install on Windows 2003 and
b) co-exist with MSIE 7, that works with Java 1.2?
