Hi,
The security package used by Sun in their jdk is not compatible with the
security package used in Netscape or IE. So applets signed in jdk using
javakey will not be recognised as signed by Netscape or IE. There are
two approaches you can follow to get around this problem

1. Use Java Activator to replace the Java run Time environment of the
browser (and therefore the security architecture) with the jdk
compatible run time environment. Java Activator EA3 is now available at
java.sun.com
2. Use the netscape security api to grant extended rights to your
applets under Netscape . You can find additional information on this at
developer.netscape.com
