No. That code was a waste of bandwidth.

Any Java programmer worth paying, would not have produced
such rubbish. Truly, there were many aspects in the code
that made me think you were a keen learner who had gotten
out of their depth. A 'keen learner' can make such (and so
many) mistakes without too many repercussions, but
somebody who is supplying code for others, should
know better.
...as you unserstood I'm not at all a Java programmer.
I do now - I didn't then. We get many learners here, few
of them would have been able to state the problem as
clearly as you did.

I set up this policy while trying to load and use the applet from
appletviewer on my PC (it returned an error)
My (altered) version loaded the image successfully, from
a path relative to the codebase - no 'extended permissions'
required.

You are right but I thought it was not too kind to send the whole
code, I was hoping the problem could be found in the runWork method
..dump that code. Honestly, it is rubbish. It would be
quicker to write* again from scratch, than fix the many
problems with it.
* And if that means hiring a new programmer - so be it.
Whoever gave you that code does not deserve feeding,
let alone paying.
