To be allowed to do that, your applet must be digitally signed.
To get a code-signing certificate, you either buy one from companies
like Thawte or Verisign (US$100-US$400), or create one yourself
with a tool like OpenSSL or its like.

Your user will then be asked if he accept the signed applet, implicitly
trusting yoy and your code.

java-programmer >> Applet file reading Tell us more, why would you want to do this?
Maybe there is a different way of achieving what you want.
