Santi:
In general, applets are not permitted to communicate with a host other
than the one they were loaded from. In previous JVMs, this rule when
using a local URL was relaxed. In later versions of Java it is more
strictly enforced (as it always has been for loading applets from
remote hosts).
You might (I havent tried it) be able to use the
AccessController.doPrivileged() method to enable this -- I just don't
know if it would pop-up a user dialog for each I/O though. Some more
info at:
