With the current installer, all that matters are the registry keys.

Note: I tried to use env variables, but it works even worse, as NSIS doesn't 
handle that well at all. OTOH, it's very good for manipulating the registry 
(which is ok, since Windows itself encourages registry use, esp on Win9x, where 
env variables are a nightmare).

Specifically, these keys must be set (and have a meaningful value):
HKLM/JavaSoft/Java Runtime Enivronment/CurrentVersion
.../version_number/RuntimeLib
HKLM/JavaSoft/Java Development Kit/CurrentVersion
../version_number/JavaHome

You can access the registry by running 'regedt32'.
