Applications are also allowed to run with security prompts when the revocation status of the certificate cannot be checked. All other applications are blocked.

Note: To ensure that the expiration check is disabled, use the -userConfig deployment.expiration.check.enabled false option with the javaws command.

• HIDE_CANCEL: Suppresses the warning dialog and behaves as if the user had clicked Cancel in the warning dialog - potentially unsafe components are blocked from running and the program may terminate.

• DISABLE (not recommended): Disables the software from checking for mixing trusted and untrusted code, leaving the user to run potentially unsafe code with no warning and without the additional protections.
