I’m trying to run an applet via a webpage but doing so gives me the error:

....more stuff I don't want to have to retype but I can if necessary
and I don’t understand why. I’m trying to get at several jars with my applet but this is the only one that’s causing the problem (at least for the moment). I looked at this similar question, but since I don’t have an extra library (unless the applet.class counts which I haven’t signed anyway), this doesn’t seem to apply here. I looked at Mixing Signed and Unsigned Code, but “Enable – show warning if needed” is clicked, “Trusted-Library: true” is in the MANAFEST file, and I’m running firefox 3.6.24 (as specific for a Linux machine which I have). I’d appreciated your help.
jogl.all.jar’s MANAFEST file:

It looks as if you have not signed the jar (hence the “sandboxed” bit).
Writing trusted Java code that can safely be used by untrusted code is really, really difficult.
