Can anyone help with this mystery.

If  I open a web page using a properly signed  Java applet (from Bob), I get a 
dialog (OS X Mavericks, Safari, Java 7.67) which says

Web site: http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk
Application: UNKNOWN   (why unknown, its properly signed!)
Publisher: UNKOWNN  (no they are not!
Check box “Do not show this again for this app and web site” is checked

The trouble is that this check box is entirely ignored.  Next time the app 
loads, up pops this dialog again.
If you want to see if this can be replicated, try it at  
http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/rzepa/cub2jvxl/

(PS using 14.0.1 for the above.  14.2.4 does not work with the file dialog 
request to load a cube file from a local disk). 

By the way if I accidentally press  “Do not allow” instead of “allow” the site 
is entirely disabled permanently on that computer,  and I cannot get it to  
ever work again (despite browser cache purges, restarts, etc. ).  If only  I 
knew where the file was which remembers this (accidentally entered) 
information,  I could delete it, but try as I might  I cannot find it!  Nor 
does editing the  Exception site list help either.

Java, to quote  Steve Jobs, is a bag of hurt, and hurting more and more.  But I 
need it to eg generate isosurfaces from (often  500 Mbyte) cube files.
