Hi Benjamin!
The only OTHER way would be to pack up your class files, images etc.
in a JAR and sign it. You can generate your own private & public key
(your certificate) with the tools supplied in the JDK. Still,
this is no trusted certificate (not authorised by any Trust Center
or something).
Check out the security FAQ of Sun:

Cheers, Thomas
