Hello,

I am having a problem with my applet and I believe it is due to a
security
issue. In my init() function, my applet is supposed to make a
connection
back to the web server from which it came and request a page. I'm
doing
this by using the URL class. When I load the page that contains the
applet
through a browser from the machine that has the web server, so
everything
is local, I can make a connection, request a page, and read the data
coming
back.

However, if I try to load the applet from a remote machine, the applet

doesn't get any data. (If it gets data it should show up in the
applets UI.)
Are there some security issues when an applet tries to contact the web

server from which it came?

I am using IE 4.0 and IIS 3.0 on NT 4.0.

Thanks,
Joe
