Hi,
  Which version of VMD are you running?
Also, can you tell me what VRML viewer plugin you're using with your
IE/Netscape? They are all slightly different, and the VRML viewer
I've been testing with recently (glview) works fine for the scenes
that I've tried. If you can tell me more about your test environment
I should be able to improve the VRML 1.x or VRML 2.x output that VMD
generates so it works better for your viewers. I've found a lot of
VRML viewers that don't work quite right, so it could be you've got one
of the buggy ones, but you're right that VMD could also be at fault here.

Thanks,
  John Stone

And I rendered same molecules by other methods, such as povray, they all gave the reasonable output. I wonder it is because that I missed some parameters in rendering or I need edit the wrl files to correct this problem.
