Hi.

Is there a way to force the "always trust content from this provider" NOT to be
checked as default.

I do NOT want to trust the signers by default, but might opt-in to certain
signers.

In details the danish digital signature-thing requieres java :-(

Some malware has tried to popup a form to steal the login-info from the user. I
prevent this by willingly NOT accepting to trust the provider. That way I'm
forced to accept it when I want to use the applet, someone trying to use a
look-alike form would be detected.

That's why it's very bad that I can't always disable the "always trust content
from this provider". Right now I have setup a a loader-script for firefox, to
delete ~/.icedtea. It was he only way I could find to forget a mark in "always
trust content from this provider"

Pleaaase. A better solution shuld be possible,
