Gain API interface

Hello,
I am a Gain customer and use their Java based platform for my trading. I am happy with the firm and am not looking to switch brokers at this time, so pls don't suggest it.

My question is for any other Gain/Forex.com traders: has any one had success in programming a viable alternative to Gain's Java heavy platform? They say I can write a front end in Perl, C++, VB.net and even excel, but are these browser applications or stand alones?

Like I said, I like Gain and have no problems with their service: I get my fills w/o requotes (500k - 5MM size trades), i get my money, I get what I need. But I find the Java based browser application too slow in startup, too resource heavy, and tends to log itself off at odd times. So, again,pls, not looking to move just yet, only want to program interface I'm happy with. Thanx.
