        There are 2 scenario where the cancel button will not behave as expected:

        1st scenario:

        1. Install JRE1.4.2 or J2SDK1.4.2
        2. Press the cancel button at the point where the dialog box states following:
        "Please wait while the installShield wizard install Java ... This may take several minutes.", "status: creating jar file..."
        3. Another dialog box will ask whether the user really want to cancel the installation process, press "Yes" to cancel.

        Results: Some files have been installed and the registry has been modified.

        Expected behavior: The installation should have completely roll back to the previous state where no file has been install.

        2nd scenario:

        1. Uninstall either JRE1.4.2 or J2SDK1.4.2
        2. Press the cancel button at the point where the dialog box states following:
        "Status: windows configures Java 2 Realtime Environment SE v1.4.2"
        3. A dialog box will have its status bar reverse and roll back.

        Results: Some files have been uninstalled and some registry records would have been deleted.

        Expected behavior: The uninstallation should roll back and no files or registry should be modified.
