Unblock your unsigned apps/applets and Switch Between Java Plug-ins

While working with web application which use applets or other technologies perceived not be as secured the contemporary technologies you might get error. For example if you try to run the web tours application provided by HP load runner on Windows 7 you might get an error message such as:




  • Security Exception: User declined to run unsigned sandbox app

  • Application Blocked. Click for details



To overcome this when you are sure that the source from which the application is being run is safe then you can make the security level as Medium.  To do this navigate to Start --> Java --> Configure Java and click on Security tab and Make the security level as medium.
 
To switch between old and new Java Plug-ins click on the Advanced tab and uncheck the Java-plug-in -->  Enable the next generation Java Plug-in (requires browser restart) check box.






Do this only if you are sure that the source from which the application is being run is safe.

  1. In recent versions of java there is only "High" and "Very High". No more medium :(

  2. Unchecking "Show sandbox warning banner" seemed to have solved my problem.
