vrweb is quite old and only supports vrml1. gtklookat
and openvrml-lookat are both standalone viewer
for the openvrml lib

both, freewrl and openvrml support vrml2 and
can be compiled to work as browser-plugin or
standalone vrml viewer. I don't know if the
ubuntu packages are compiled to be used
as plugins. You probable have to check the
project pages to see how to use the libs
as plugin:

http://www.openvrml.org/
