      J2SE Version (please include all output from java -version flag):
        java version "1.5.0-beta2"
        Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta2-b48)
        Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta2-b48, mixed mode, sharing)

      Does this problem occur on J2SE 1.3.x or 1.4.x? Yes / No (pick one)
        No

      Operating System Configuration Information (be specific):
        Windows XP

      Bug Description:
        Java Web Start applications now create "Add/Remove Programs" entries on
        Windows. Clicking "Change/Remove" on a JWS application (in the Control
        Panel's "Add/Remove Programs" screen) instantly removes the given
        application, without any kind of prompt, warning, or confirmation. Most
        other uninstallers at least say "Are you sure you want to uninstall
        XXXXXXX?"

        The uninstaller for JWS applications should ask "Are you sure you want
        to uninstall <name of application>?" before uninstalling.


      Steps to Reproduce (be specific):
        1. Install a JWS application which adds an Add/Remove Programs entry
        2. Open Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel
        3. Click "Change/Remove" for that application's Add/Remove Programs entry
