That is strange. The message I get (on a system where no JDK is  
installed at all) is that "Sun JDK was not found", i.e., it doesn't  
mention version 5. Are you sure that you have the latest version of  
the MSI installer package? Sometimes browsers cache too aggressively...

If you do have the latest version, please give us some more detailed  
information. E.g., is the JDK installed in the standard location?  
Does your registry contain the key HKLM\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java  
Development Kit\1.6?

Currently, there is a problem, but only if you have JDK 5 installed  
instead of JDK 6. We are working on this and hope to provide a  
solution within the next days. Anyway, your problem appears to be the  
exact opposite.

Cheers,
