We've recently had an update of our desktop software and, since then, I haven't been able to run my reports with WebStart. I get an error message:

Unsigned application requesting unrestricted access to system
Unsigned resource: http://downloads.visokio.com/omni27...

I don't pretend to understand the detailed message, but it contains the lines:

<security\>
<all-permissions/>
</security>

which looks like the sort of thing that would give our IT Risk people a major problem. Is there really a requirement for "*all* permissions" on my machine?

Edit 3rd Dec: I've spoken with some support people here and, although they weren't able to help directly, they mentioned that the "Unsigned" parts of the error message (newly highlighted above) may cause a problemwith our systems here.

Edit 5th Dec: Fwiw, the aforementioned "update of our desktop software" contained the following: Upgrade JRE to the new version 6u33
