      J2SE Version (please include all output from java -version flag):
      java version "1.4.0-beta2"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta2-b76)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta2-b76, mixed mode)


      Does this problem occur on J2SE 1.3? Yes / No (pick one)
      NO


      Operating System Configuration Information (be specific):
      WinNT 4.0


      Hardware Configuration Information (be specific):
      Intel PII


      Bug Description:
      Installation of the JDK installs the following entry in the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Javasoft\Java Development Kit\1.4
      JavaHome: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape 6\\Plugins
      This does not point to the JDK nor to the JRE so it is not possible to find the jvm.dll to load and start the VM.


      Steps to Reproduce (be specific):
      - have Netscape 6.1 installed on WinNT machine
      - Uninstall the old JDK build(build72)
      - Install new JDK build 76 which installs the following entry in the
        registry at

        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Javasoft\Java Development Kit\1.4

        JavaHome: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape 6\\Plugins
