Description colebantam 2009-04-20 10:37:40 UTC 
The Java Executables are all (or mostly?) digitally signed. Why doesn't that 
belong to the OOo Files too?

@ mh: Please have a look.
Comment 2 Martin Hollmichel 2009-08-12 12:22:13 UTC 
sign executables to ensure what ? 
to grant integrity of the files the signing of the packages should be enough.
Comment 3 colebantam 2009-08-13 15:07:25 UTC 
Kaspersky Anti-Virus solutions (and most likely others too) read the digital 
signature vendor name, and compares it with a built-in list of trusted 
applications. If the app is in the list, it is handled with predefined security-
rules. In this case, the user doesn't need to answer so many questions from the 
AV. So, signing the executables can help providing a better user experience..
