Does that mean that the exported page code is prepared to use the unsigned applet? 
Automatically? Automatically when it's on a server?
If not so, then If the user wants to set a copy on his/her own server, and needs to know how 
to change the code to use the unsigned applet, then (s)he will certainly have not much 
trouble in replacing the signed files with be unsigned ones. 
I think that a handful of PP downloads at 9 MB each is a burden, when they could be 1.2 
MB.
That's just my opinion, of course.
And in any case you can omit Jmol.jar, JmolApplet.jar and JmolAppletSigned.jar, bringing 
the signed+unsigned set down to 2.5 MB.
(I am assuming that PP uses Jmol.js; if not, then keep the monolithic applet files abd 
discrad the JmolApplet0*.jar & JmolAppletSigned0*.jar sets)

Another possibility is that I'd bet the exported packs will always run properly with the 
unsigned applet, both locally and from a server. ProteoPedia needs the signed applet to 
fetch the files from PDB, but not so the exported pack. Right?
