Thank You Thaths for this useful link! I got a lot of relevant info, and
i hope i'll be able to solve the problem.

As long as we're using "appletviewer", it doesn't matter...
But this doesn't seem to hold true when using a browser(i used
netscape). 

"Netscape's engineers have found it useful to modify the security
behavior of Communicator in several ways. "

It gives:
netscape.security.AppletSecurityException: security.Couldn't connect to
'157.227.12.225' with origin from ''.

Unfortunately, javakey is not supported by netscape, and getting a
certificate for digitally signing my applet costs $200

oh, well! :)
