      Launching Java web start from the icon on the desktop after doing a dirty install with 1.4.2 over 1.4.2_01, Java web start launches 1.4.2 version.
      This is not expected and it's expected that 1.4.2_01 version is launched.

      When lauching jaws applicaion manager, Java Web Start console says like below;
       
           ============================================================
             Java Web Start 1.4.2 Console, started....
             Java 2 Runtime Enviroment: Version 1.4.2_01 by Sun.....
           ============================================================



      Tested OS : Windows XP pro. japanese
                  Windows XP home. japanese
                  Windows 2k pro. japanese
                  Windows 2k pro. English + multilanguage pack
                  Windows 2003 SE japanese
                  Windows 98 2nd japanese
                
      Steps to reproduce :

      1) Installing j2re 1.4.2_01
      2) Rebooting the machine
      3) Installing j2re 1.4.2 FCS b28 over 1.4.2_01
      4) Rebooting the machine
      5) Lauching Jaws application manager
      Then, you can see 1.4.2 version is lauched.
      6)Check the version with Help->About Javawebstart
      You'll see 1.4.2 "Version 1.4.2(build 28)

      [Note]
      - Launching jnlp apllication from the browser, it works fine with 1.4.2_01 version of j2re and jaws.
      - On most caces I saw the jaws icon was changed to the old icon from the new one. But only once I saw the new icon remained after insatlling 1.4.2.(Even on this case, jaws 1.4.2 is launched.)


      ======================================================================

      Trying the dirty install with 1.4.1 over 1.4.2, this kind of problem is not seen.(I've not tried the test with 1.4.1's latet update release).
      So this is a regression.

      Modify the synoposis: 1.4.2_02 -> 1.4.2_01
