title: Java 1.7 Update 45 - Unable to run unsigned jar
body: <p>I am able to run applets that have signed jar files on Internet Explorer with Java 1.7 Update 45.<br>
  I am however not able to run applets with unsigned jar files.<br>
  I tried clearing the cache.<br>
  I have also changed the security java control panel settings to Medium.<br>
  I still get the error <code>JarSigningException</code>.<br></p>
  
  <p>Is there any way I can proceed here?<br>
  Are only signed jar files allowed? This looks like a major limitation.<br>
  Is there anyway I can tweak some settings to get unsigned applets to load?</p>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated.</p>
