      When deploying a JavaFx application via java webstart, some clients who do not have the Java FX runtime installed encounter an error while it gets auto-installed: javafx-windows-i586__Vlatest.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
      The jnlp contains the following line:
      <jfx:javafx-runtime version="2.0+" href="http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/GetFile/javafx-latest/windows-i586/javafx2.jnlp"/>

      It seems to fail on Windows XP PCs, but the same auo-installation process works fine on Windows 7 x64 PCs.

      Downloading and running http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/javafx/javafx-windows-i586__Vlatest.exe directly solves the issue.
