      Windows 7

      Setting environment variable _JPI_VM_OPTIONS=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=4000,server=y,suspend=y before starting internet browser and launching applet no longer works on Windows7. jp2launcher strips down all insecure VM arguments and "-agentlib" prefix is not listed in SecureVmArgPrefixes array in src\common\share\native\secureArgs.c. Need to investigate why "-agentlib" prefix was not included in the list of allowed VM args: intentionally due to some security issues or it was just missed.
