- * under the protection of their browser's security manager.

+ * <p>Applets typically run in a container that already has a security
+ * manager, so there is generally no need for applets to set a security
+ * manager. If you have a standalone application, you might need to set a
+ * {@code SecurityManager} in order to enable class downloading. This can be
+ * done by adding the following to your code. (It needs to be executed before
+ * RMI can download code from remote hosts, so it most likely needs to appear
+ * in the {@code main} method of your application.)
  *
- * <p>To use a <code>SecurityManager</code> in your application, add
- * the following statement to your code (it needs to be executed before RMI
- * can download code from remote hosts, so it most likely needs to appear
- * in the <code>main</code> method of your application):
