Hey Ramanajv<br />

It should not be possible. If it is possible then there is no security in Applets and it defeats the Java Applets.<br />
To Access the REsource u should have signed or digital Signature.<br />
YOu cann't escape from Sun VM<br />

How to break the sand-box barrier?

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
