Applet disabled by IWSS Javascan site policy

[davalv@…]

Recently, the settings of the antivirus Trend Micro in my system were changed by the system administrator.
Unfortunately JOSM no longer works because of the continuously appearing warnings, such as the one attached.
Choosing "Stop Applet" I get messages attached.

This happens for "JOSM-tested.jar" and "JOSM-latest.jar.

I doubt we can do anything against. Basically the scanner blocks accesses to our internal ressources stored in the java archive file.

It seems strange that after this change any java applet is disabled.
I think the solution is to digitally sign the applet and/or to create an appropriate policy file for JOSM.

The applet is digitally signed. But the key is not automatically accepted by Java. If you want to sponsor an official key, we happily accept that sponsorship.

It seems that the proxy adds some classes to the unsigned jars in the "com\trend\IWSS\jscan\runtime\" path.
This is the official documentation relating to the "problem": ​http://esupport.trendmicro.com/Pages/IWSx-3x-Some-files-and-folders-are-added-to-the-Jar-files-after-passin.aspx

In fact, if I download JOSM windows installer, or if I copy it from another computer, the problem no longer exists.

It would be useful an installer for JOSM latest, as already done for JOSM tested.

Thanks.

I'm against adding installers for beta software.
