Hi,
I read article in the docs/guide/security about privileged blocks but it =
's confusing for me.
2 questions:
why this chapter is not even mentioned in the Java tutorial?
Does the implementation of this mechanism on the JVM (Java Plugin 1.2 on =
Windows NT 4 with IE4) work?
Because i 've made a little test code which try to write a cookie on =
the local machine, it raises an exception on one PC and not on the =
other one?I did'nt change the policy files, standard ones on the 2 =
machines.

Best regards
