      Description

        JRE off-line installer sets incomplete info in RunOnce registry
        in case user opts for installation to be completed after login/reboot:

        [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce]
        "JavaInstallRetry"="RUNONCE=1 SPONSORS=0"

        As a result installation doesn't continue after login/reboot
        so JRE upgrade gets rolled back.

        On-line installer sets correct data which is:
        [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce]
        "JavaInstallRetry"="\"C:\\Documents and Settings\\User\\Application Data\\Sun\\Java\\JRERunOnce.exe\" RUNONCE=1 SPONSORS=0"

        How to reproduce:
        -Install JRE 7u4
        -open IE
        -Install with off-line installer JRE 7u6
        -When "Close IE to continue installation" windows pops up
         click "LATER" button.
        -click "OK" button to continue the installation after login/reboot
        -if no JRE installation takes place after login/reboot then the bug
         is reproduced.
