It looks like it needs unrestricted access so that it can access your file system, since it presents its own file manager looking thing so you can pick where to save the files.  No way to know for sure though.

Why should I need to allow "Unrestricted access" to my computer in order 
to download a file?  What exactly is that Java applet doing?  Could it 
do something malicious?  How do you know for sure?
