Hello!

We hade developed an application using XPCOM-components. The only
solution we have discoved so far to access XPCOM-components is to
set...

user_pref("signed.applets.codebase_principal_support", true);

...in the prefs.js file and added the line...

netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalXPConnect");

...to the JavaScript file.

We want to sign the application so these two lines can be skipped. Is
this possible??? We have successfully signed a jar-archive and our
JavaScript-files, but we still need these two lines...why???

We don´t want the users to edit their prefs.js-file to use our
application...
