If I place the applet as a *.jar file in the 'public' area of a web folder -
is it possible to prevent any programs from scanning the Apache/Tomcat
server for extraction of the files (html, jsp, class, jar)?

I want to prevent access by programs to the source files - like /WEB-INF is
protected - but in a way so that the applets can be used from the web
server?
