Certain root certificates are pre-installed with the JDK (Thawte/Verisign etc). So I am assuming it would be possible to
validate the signed plugins. The validation works for signed applets. Should it not be similar for signed nbms?

Reassigning to the new "autoupdate/*" owner dlipin.
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2010-11-24 10:31:45 UTC
