How to force un-signed java applications to run

I am trying to access a java-operated ssh/shell terminal on my cPanel, but i keep getting a

Application Blocked by Security Settings

Your security settings have blocked a self-signing application from running.

I have lowered java's security level to medium in the java control panel, and also added the cPanel's ssh link to the java exception site list, but it still gives me the same blocked message saying that the java applet is requesting a package found on another domain address not specified in the exemption site list.

A really stupid error all I'm trying to do is access my domains shell client.

Google Chrome 37.0.2062.120 (Official Build 281580) m

OS Windows 8.1

Blink 537.36 (@181352)

JavaScript V8 3.27.34.17

Java Version 7 update 67

Flash 15.0.0.152

Please help?

This happens because you are using java7/8 on your system.

In java 7 security settings has increased and applets are now forced to sign their jars. and add the 

Permissions: sandbox

To the manifest file in the jar.

Adding the site to the exception site list should suffice, if it does not the only thing I can tell you to do is uninstall your current java installment and install version 6 although this is not recommended, the fix should come from the app side.
