Hello!

You can disable the checks by modifying yours  deployment.properties in your config directory. 
Depends on yours $XDG_CONFIG_HOME, eg   ~/.config/icedtea-web/deployment.properties

To ignore manifest (and so this) checks, you need to play with
deployment.manifest.attributes.check
    and
deployment.security.level

(see verbose help/manpages/runtime/online docs))

The value of deployment.manifest.attributes.check depends on yours version of ITW. on 1.6.X:
   Most insecure setting is:
deployment.manifest.attributes.check=NONE
deployment.security.level=ALLOW_UNSIGNED

   but:
deployment.manifest.attributes.check=CODEBASE,ENTRYPOINT,PERMISSIONS,TRUSTED

Should be enough for you.

Since 1.7 (future ITW) this dialog will have "remember checkbox" and its remembering will be based 
on codebase/docbase.
