How do I change the security context for an applet when running it with applet viewer?

Use a policy file with an entry specifying full privileges, and a codeBase specifying your entire local drive. For example: 


  grant codeBase "file:/C:/-" {
    permission java.security.AllPermission;
  };
Then start appletviewer: 

  appletviewer -J-Djava.security.policy=launch.policy launch.html
