=0A
I have searched a number of sites on the internet but I haven't find an=
ything
that will be of any help to me. I am using the Java tools version 1.1 a=
nd I
will use the Verisign Certificates to sign the applet. I would like to =
ask you
a couple of questions

1. I would like to know how can I have my signed cab (for Internet Exp=
lorer)
and jar file (for Netscape) permanently stored locally on the hard disk=
. When a
request is placed for my applet, the archive is downloaded from the ser=
ver
everytime. Also, in which directory do they reside once installed for e=
ach
browser?

2. When the signed archive is permanently stored on the hard disk, how =
do I (a)
replace it when the version changes, and (b) replace archive components=
, for
example new version classes? If the solution has to be an applet based =
on
multiple archives, how do I maintain them?
