Applet blocked when using Java 1.7.0_51

Problem

-- - When using java 1.7.0_51, the Electronic Signature applet is blocked in the navigator with the error message "liveconnect: Security Exception: LiveConnect (JavaScript) blocked due to security settings" in the Java console

Resolution

-- The latest java update modified the security parameters. With the default java 7-b51 the applet is blocked.
   In order to unblock the applet:
       - Open the Java configuration from control panel;
       - Go to the tab Security and click on the "Edit Site List";
       - Enter the Electronic Signature url in this list.

-- The Electronic Signature 2.9.1 will contain an update on the applet that will avoid this workaround.
