I think it's a security restriction, not an error. Try testing with
appletviewer. If everything is OK, it will work.
Probably you are trying to run the applet on the same machine with the
servlet (localhost:8080), and you get this message above. I don't know
exactly why MS I.E. does that, but if you'll try with the appletviewer or
running the applet on a different machine (but loading it from the same were
the servlet resides !) it will be OK.
Same happened to me...
