No offense taken, I underestand your position. However, I'm not worried about the dangerousness of the site. I know it's a well known stock market information provider (here in Brazil). I'm just curious about why the applet do not work correctly with Sun's Java + F9 + FX3, while it works fine with Sun's Java + F8 + FX2 and with OpenJDK + F9 + FX3. And, as I said in the previous e-mail, the fact that the certificate is untrusted do not make the site more dangerous. If it was an HTTP:// link instead of an HTTPS:// link, you would have opened it, and the risk would be the same... The untrusted certificate only means you can't trust the information shown there (or better saying, you can't be sure it comes from the source the URL says it it comes from). And the other way is also true, the fact the the certificate is trusted does not mean the site is secure (with "secure" I mean "not malicious", "not dangerous". The data transmission is of course protected by SSL, as it's also true even if the certificate is untrusted). The trusted certificate only means you can be sure the site's contents were published by the site's owner. Whether it's secure or not, dangerous or not, it's another matter.
