    Description

      The 7u2 Deployment toolkit is not registered with Firefox/ Chrome
      This is a regression since 7u2-b08 (OK up tp b07). As the result, 7u2 deployment toolkit can not be deloyed and used with Firefox and Chrome

      *** Tested configurations
      - x86 XP, Win 7
      - Firefox 6.x
      - jre: 7u2-b07,b08,b13

      *** Steps to reproduce:

      0) Make sure:
       - no Java deployment toolkit/ JREs installed on the system
       - no npdeployJava1.dll under
            \Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\
            \Windows\System32\
       - no DT plug-in key under \HKLM\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@java.com


      1) Check to make sure no Java deployment toolkit registered with Chrome/Firefox
       - Invoke the browser and about:plugins

      2) Install jre 7u2-b08

      3) Open Firefox/Chrome and check about:plugins

      * If you don't see 'Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.20.8' entry there, then the issue is reproducible

      * Do the same exact above step but install jre 7u2-b07, you will see the expected behavior as DT registered with Firefox/Chrome


      The issue appears that starting from b08, npdeployJava1.dll is no longer existed at
      \Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins
