yes and no are the answers, but how to disable the cachedir ?

there is no clean way to do that in your context, the point is that
jython at moment does not support what you are trying :).
Its support for applets mainly goes through the jythonc way,

The code needs changes for doing cleanly what you're
trying but see below.

Unless you can go the jythonc way, you will need to grant permissions to
your applet anyway because of the cited classloader creation problem.
