For those interested:

I have a new applet for demonstration of an artificial
intelligence/reference tool application located at: www.george345.com.

Please take a look.

It is a signed Applet using Sun's technique. The instructions to run
it are pretty daunting. Your average user would run in terror. You
can't even give them the exact URL of the policy file to modify.

There has to be some better way to handle "wild" Applets.

For more detail, please look up the key words mentioned in this post in
the Java Glossary at: http://mindprod.com/gloss.html

When I tried it with Netscape 6.1 I got:

Netscape security model is no longer supported.
Please migrate to the Java 2 security model instead.

Roedy:

My applet is now signed. Thanks for letting me know
of Signed Applets. I thought that since the Signer
applications were proprietary, so were the signatures.
