On Windows 2000, the installation class isn't started. The plug in applet store
directory is located under C:\Documents And Settings\java_plugin_AppletStore.
The installation seems to call java -jar C:\Documents And
Settings\java_plugin_AppletStore\1.3.0_01\ext\BInstall.jar
com.mycompany.Install which doesn't work because of spaces in the path.

Note: "Documents And Settings" seems to be a standard default path on Win2k.
The same installation works smoothly on WinNT and Win98.
