Bug#843784: [Openjdk] Bug#843784: openjdk-7-jre: After last security update, icedtea-plugin fails all applets

Hi Alain, Please try out the deb files @ https://keybase.pub/tdaitx/icedtea-web-1.6.2/ and let me know if they do solve the problem. If they don't, I would need you to point me to a public online applet that was known to work on the older openjdk version and is now failing on the new one,

Thanks for your answer. Yes the applet on https://www.w3.org/People/mimasa/test/object/java/clock work fine but with a lot of popup dialog to accept. I have also always errors when I used my Lexmark network printer scanner. I can control remotely the scanner but it claims that it was disconnected
