Hi Frieda,
This is a issue we are dealing with in Proteopedia as well.
The combination of Firefox version 2 and Java version 1.6.0_03+
(latest stable release is 1.6.0_05) is more sensitive to security
issues.
When I do a reverse DNS lookup on the IP address you gave
(64.95.78.91) I get permaculture.gaiahost.coop. I'm guessing that
this name does not match the domain name of the website where you
are having these problems. This mismatch causes the combination
of FF2 and Java 1.6.0_03+. At least that is how I understand it
at the moment, and if anyone wants to correct me I'll be glad to
be corrected.
Regular commands seem to be passed ok to the Jmol applet, but
scripts or files stored on the server throw the error when you try
to execute or load them. The odd part is that any script or load
file commands inside the original definition of the applet works
fine.
Rolf pointed out a message board dealing with the issue in one of
his previous messages I've copied below:
This looks like a problem we are also facing with our "JenaLib Jmol
Viewer" and Firefox. It started with Java version 1.6.0_03.
Since Egon uses 1.6.0_05 I would expect that he will also have the
same
"java.security.AccessControlException" problem with the following
URL:
http://www.fli-leibniz.de/cgi-bin/3d_mapping.pl?CODE=1deh
I tried other Jmol sites and they worked fine with Java 1.6.0_03.
But I
couldn't figure out what makes the difference.
The following thread in the Java forum
"http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5230759"; seems to
refer
to this problem. It is suggested there that the problem could be
avoided
by connecting back to the server before any liveconnect calls are
made.
But removing any callbacks didn't help with our viewer and I
couldn't
detect any other liveconnect calls before loading the PDB file and
script from our server.
As explanation for the difference between InternetExplorer and
Firefox I
found the suggestion that the more stringent default security
policy of
Firefox is responsible for it.
Regards,
Rolf
Best regards,
Eran

CORRECTION - the pdb file does not load into the applet when all
files
are placed into the same directory. SO the breakage is even worse in
this case.
script ERROR: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.net.SocketPermission 64.95.78.91:80 connect,resolve)
--------Sent previously, incorrect:
Placing all the files in the same directory (and changing all the
file
calls) still results in a security error when a script is called
by a
button:

(Buttons
