A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The documentation states that the detection of the version 1.4.2 is done with the line JavaWebStart.isInstalled.3, but it turns out that checking JavaWebStart.isInstalled.1.4.2.0 is the way to find out.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Change the documentation to state JavaWebStart.isInstalled.1.4.2.0 instead of JavaWebStart.isInstalled.3. Or change the installer to correctly register this.

If Not(IsObject(CreateObject("JavaWebStart.isInstalled.1.4.2.0"))) Then
     javaws142Installed = 0
  Else
     javaws142Installed = 1
  End If

ACTUAL -
If Not(IsObject(CreateObject("JavaWebStart.isInstalled.3"))) Then
     javaws142Installed = 0
  Else
     javaws142Installed = 1
  End If
