Detect Not Accept Signed Web Applet?

I have two questions. Is there a way to detect if a user does not
accept the signed web applet? Also, if you accept the signed applet
and check to not remind again, how do you clear that so it prompts
again in IE? Thanks

You can check from unsigned code whether loading of signed code has
succeeded. A simple Class.forName should do.

You should be able to do that from the Java Control Panel.

Thanks Thomas for the reply, found that in the control panel. I'm very
new to java, do you have an example of how to check or any web resource
on how to implement that check? Thanks

I don't know of any.

If you try it, make sure you put signed and unsigned code in different
packages. Code with different signatures can't exist in the same
package. You can fiddle it with class loaders, but that still does not
permit package access.
