I have tested the signedWriteFile applet with appletviewer following =
the

procedure described in JDK 1.1 documentation and it worked as =
documented.

However I would like to use it with a commercial web browser (like =
Netscape Communicator 4.0,IE 4.0 (preview 2), HotJava).

>From the tests I performed (trying to minimize the security =
restrictions) this applet always caused

a security exception. Is there a way to specify a certification for the =
specific site and applet in these browsers

in order to remove the security restriction ?

I thank you in advance
