The applet CustomHighApplet enables end users to customize
their IE4+ HIGH security template to completely disable active-content
in web pages. Microsoft Windows Foundation Classes for Java (WFC) are used to
change win32 registry settings corresponding to the HIGH template values. The applet is contained in a signed cab file. The Java class is
defined in a package com.nortelnetworks.is.sec
The following script makes use of
the Microsoft SDK for Java v 4.0
tools to compile, package and sign the
cabinet file customhigh.cab:
<![CDATA[
jvc /d . CustomHighApplet.java
cabarc -p n customhigh.cab com/nortelnetworks/is/sec/CustomHighApplet.class
signcode -j javasign.dll -jp LOW -cn "Security Development" -n "Custom HIGH Applet" -t "http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll" customhigh.cab
]]>
The following html is then used for web deployment:
<![CDATA[

<PARAM NAME="cabbase" VALUE="customhigh.cab">
