Subj : Security Problem

Hello,

I'm writing a Mozilla Extension using LiveConnect to access my own 
classes. Since I didn't find out where to put my classes (except the 
jre/classes directory which is not useful since I want them somewhere in 
the Mozilla directory to install them with xpi later), I use a 
URLClassLoader to access/load them.

Now, the problem is that there seems to be a rather restrictive 
SecurityManager - I cannot read/write local files, open connections etc. 
Also, Frames are marked with an "Applet-Flag". Well, I do not wrote an 
Applet, this is an Extension directly linked into XUL/.js Code, so can I 
avoid these security restrictions somehow?

Thanks,
Keno
