Java warning despite applet being signed properly

I have JAR which is properly signed with a valid certificate from a trusted company. Im running an applet using HTML applet tag. My Manifest file includes following permissions:

Application-Name ="XYZ"
Permissions="all-permissions"
Codebase="*"
Trusted-Library="true"

I get the following warning message when running applet in browser:

Java Warning for my signed applet

I do not want this message to appear when my users open my applet. Can you advise me why this warning message is appearing and how to avoid it from appearing for my users?

Thanks!

Due to recent security incidents, you cannot anymore. - Elliott Frisch
do you mean this is there to notify users to make a concious decision whether to run the applet or not and it is not a security threat warning kind of? - A.R
The user must now consciously decide, and it is a security threat warning. They may well not trust you. - Elliott Frisch

how to avoid it from appearing for my users?

There is no way to avoid it. It is the choice of the user as to whether to run trusted code, and the decision of Sun/Oracle that they should be prompted.

Why exactly does the applet require all-permissions?
