That was quite an interesting article. I have to read again more 
carefully. The impression, however, that I have gotten so far is that 
there have been serious security problems with Java applets, to have 
them sign by an official authority is expensive, and that instead of 
having the applet embedded in the webpage probably a better idea is to 
have the visitor choose to download the jar file on his desktop, and 
open the applet by clicking on it. Is my impression wrong?
