Xavier, this sounds like a problem others may start seeing as well. I 
think it's safe to say that it is impossible to "tell Jmol to not read 
the cache." Jmol just reads the file; it has no capability of knowing 
whether that file is cached or not. I'm using Java build 1.6.0_05-b13, 
and I have not seen this problem. It's possible that it's a problem Sun 
has fixed -- or not.

To avoid the problem entirely, just use the signed applet.
