Keys accessed via AltGr not working when running SSHVnc on IE.

Hi!

Running a SSHVnc-1.1.3-applet on top of Suns latest JDK for Windows,
in Internet Explorer, connecting to a Linux machine running TightVNC,
characters accessed via the AltGr key can't be written.

I'm using a swedish keyboard, and the AltGr is used to enter such
well-used characters as '@', '\', '~' and a few others, so the bug is
quite irritating.

Connecting via the same version of SSHVnc, running on top of a Mozilla
running on Linux, the problem doesn't occur.

I did some X event catching using xev. This is what happends when I
try to press AltGr+2 (which is what I normally press for an '@'),
running SSHVnc on top of Windows:

Doing the same thing, but now running SSHVnc on top of Mozilla in
Linux:

    state 0x0, keycode 107 (keysym 0xffff, Delete), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes:  "_"

Any ideas on this?
