As of Java 7u45 an applet will display a warning message (even if signed with a trusted cert) if a webpage tries to interact with it via javascript and that page isn\'t list
I had the same issue. Solution for me was using same parameters in manifest as Oracle used on donwload page in applet for verify java version http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp Their applet does not popup any warnings.
so solution is:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Codebase: *
Permissions: all-permissions
Application-Library-Allowable-Codebase: *
Caller-Allowable-Codebase: *
Application-Name: APPNAME
it works on:
1.7.0_17-b02
1.7.0_25-b17
1.7.0_45-b18
