      Customer reported that 'msiexec /I <jre>.msi' does not work correctly.
      The JRE 6 product can be installed by 'msiexec /I <jre>.msi' and everything
      appears to work fine.
      Using a subsequent 'msiexec /I <jre>.msi' however, spoils the installation
      and leaves it in an inconstent state.
      It is still listed under Windows 'installed programs', however can no longer
      be used.
      It was reported that JRE 6 Update 18 to JRE 6 Update 24 are affected.
