    Subject: Security problem

Hello, I am a Java user
I have a great problem with the security in Java.
I must put an applet to be accesed by any kind of browsers like
Netscape, Explorer or appletviewer.
The problem appears when I try to read some information files from the
server host. The SecurityManager throws an

netscape.security.AppletSecurityException:
security.checkread: Read of
'javaviewer/shp/cuenca.shx' not permitted

when I do it.
Is the access to the files server host restricted?. In this case, why I
can read images without any trouble?

What can I do?

Your help will be very estimated at e-mail
