Any Java application in JDK 1.1 can use all of the java.io.File APIs, and
write to a file.
Downloaded Java applets by default cannot write to files. By default
they are untrusted. There are two ways for an applet to become trusted:
1) it is installed on a directory on the CLASSPATH used by the browser
2) it is signed
For more info, see http://java.sun.com/sfaq and
