Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Applets are designed to run in a sandboxed environment, which limits their access to system resources and prevents them from executing malicious code or accessing sensitive information on the user's system. This is done to ensure the safety and security of the user's browsing experience. Option A is not entirely accurate as the communication between the browser and server happens outside the applet. Option C and D are not entirely accurate because applets do not have full access to the operating system or the web page, but rather a restricted environment.
