In article <7hvbhq$h9d$1@reader.wxs.nl>, dutch_semoi@hotmail.com says...
|  With applets it's "impossible" to write to a file, they are specially
|  designed for Internet. They have restictions so nobody can do any damage to
|  a computer using a applet.
|  If there weren't restrictions I could make a applet which deletes all files
|  on a computer, place it on my homepage and everyone who uses the applet have
|  a empty HD ;)) I hope you understand what you want to do is impossible.
|  If you want to write files you have to make a application.

Not impossible with signed applets....
