Click on the Help button for more information. Untrusted: Applets are not permitted to run. High Security: Applets are blocked from unsafe actions. Medium Security: Applets are run with safe constraints, and you are prompted to allow restricted actions. Low Security: Applets run with minimal constraints, without warning of any restricted actions.
