The worst monsters in the Hearthlands warp the fabric of space and time..

Is the java security fix safe.

Hello. I'm wondering if it's safe to add haven and hearth to my exception site list so I can get past the security problem. Thanks!

yes it's safe - you can keep the slider on high when dropping in the urls (add https and http urls!)

disable Java in your browser ! Java Applet Exploits are the main vulnerabilies with Java and HnH doesn't use any of them

So just to make this clear, HnH does not use java applet exploits so my computer will be safe from harm by playing this game? Sorry, I'm a worry wart.

Neither HnH game with default client or known custom clients based on Ender nor the forums run any Java Applets...
