can you please be more specific? it's probably a shortcoming of my own, but i
don't understand what you mean by changing java.policy ... i do recall being
asked if i should trust the app vendor, and choosing "yes" - i don't recall
seeing "untrusted" anywhere in the output, but i'll look again as soon as i have
access to a windows machine.
