    Description

      When deploying JRE through Java Plug-in's auto download through jinstall, executing the JRE installer under non-admin account on NT/2000/XP would cause the installer to crash because InstallShield prior to 7.0 requires access to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE in the registry. JInstall should check users privileges on these OS and elevate privileges if possible before installation begin.
