Dear Sir/Madam

We are currently using Microsoft authenicode technology to sign our 1.1.7
Applets using the certificate from Verisign. We however want to move to JDK1.2
and use the Java plugin. Howvere we dont know how to sign JDK1.2 applets for the
plugin using the Verisign certificate. I browsed through the Sun web site and I
unable to find documentation explaining the steps to accomplish this although
there are detailed instructions on signing these applets using your own
certificates.
I know that IE & Netscape require different certificate from verisign. Which
one does the plugin use or it uses a different one. I would greatly appreciate
if you could answer this question as soon as possible.

Sincerely,
Vijay Raghavan
