Are you sure that you have Java7? If you downloaded the link I suggested it should allow you to pick medium. I would go to your add/remove and make sure you don't have a higher java as well. You should only have Java 7, update 60. I've run this on 4 different computers now and it's worked everytime. Keep me updated. I hope you can get it up and working!
You were right. I must have downloaded 8 instead. I'm up and running now though, thank you.

I don't post a lot, but I'll chime in with what worked for me. I've basically tried every single step mentioned above and have now spent 5+ hours on this. I finally got it working on my PC. It kept saying "Your browser does not support java applets, or java is not enabled."

I downloaded an older version of 32-bit Java 7. Update 60 to be exact. http://www.filehorse.com/download-java-runtime-32/17051/ I then did the steps everyone else has suggested by opening "Configure Java". Under Security moving the level to "Medium". Then on the exception site list, adding http://www.whatifsports.com & http://live.whatifsports.com. Now, go to play live. It will say Java(TM) was blocked because it is out of date and needs to be updated. Click on 'Run this time' You will then get a Security Warning. Do you want to run this application? Click the box that says I accept the risk and want to run this app and hit Run.

Now, when I click on play live it loads up right away and I haven't had any problems. I hope this is able to help a couple people. It sure was frustrating. ( **It worked on Internet Explorer and Firefox.

This worked for me, needed something after I got hit with a stealth Windows 10 update

I have Java 7u79 downloaded for my Mac (running El Capitan) and have added WIS to list of exceptions but, since my computer already has Java 8u71 downloaded/installed, when I go to install Java 7u79 I'm told that I can't do so. Anyone know how to revert?

I am using a Mac, it is not in Documents for me, it is in System Preferences but right clicking it does not give me the option to uninstall. Also, I only have the options for High and Very High security (maybe that will change once 7 is installed?)

What Mac OS are you using? If it's the new one (Sierra, I think), you might be screwed. For all earlier versions, just installing Java 7 should be enough but if not follow these Java instructions, then download and install 7:


Here is how to find the Java plug-in file:
  1. Click on the Finder icon in your Mac's dock.
  2. Click on the Applications tab in the sidebar.
  3. In the Search box enter (or copy/paste): JavaAppletPlugin.plugin.
  4. Right-click on JavaAppletPlugin.plugin and choose Move to Trash.

How can I uninstall Java on Mac and reinstall Apple's Java 6
