I've selected "[ ] do not ask again" when prompted to run java applet. Now all applets run without confirmations. How can I restore confirmation dialog for java applets?

Already done that, didn't help.

Anyway, was playing with settings, cleared all cache in browser and java and did the following: In java control panel: Security Tab -> Certificates -> Trusted Certificates -> User Tab -> Cleared all. Advanced Tab -> Security -> General -> unchecked "Don't prompt for client certificate selection when no certificates or only one exists".

In Firefox, about:config reset property "pref.advanced.javascript.disable_button.advanced" to default. (Now I don't see that property anymore?)

I don't really know, which one helped, but now the confirmation dialog appears!

Thank you everyone for help.

Can you not set that from the Java applet in the Control Panel?

No you can't. That was a second place I've looked, it's a Firefox's option. Firefox asks that question (when it's enabled), not java. I was able to restore this dialog few months back, but I can't find that option now.

UPDATE: It's java related, not Firefox as I assumed.

Try to clear the Java cache.

Thanks for your suggestion, but clearing java cache did not help.

Hi mitis77,

try from Control Panel (as finitarry suggest above) > open Java > Java Control Panel > Advanced tab > in Settings > Security > Mixed Code (sandboxed vs. trusted) security verification > check Enable - show warning if needed [ v ]
