KaaribogaClassLoader

Because an agent can arrive from a distant location the byte code of the agent can't be loaded by the system class loader. Therefore Kaariboga provides it's own. If an agent arrives the KaaribogaClassLoader asks the system class loder if it is able to load the corresponding byte code from file. If not the KaaribogaClassLoader initiates a network connection to get the agent's byte code from the sending host. (Note, that the coming new protocol will provide an open network connection for the class loader.)
