I may know what happens (or I could be wrong).
In any case, we have had repeatedly the case (on Win64) where webstart would want to install the FX runtime because it is missing, then downloads it, finds it is already installed, continues with running the original webstart application which then fails because FX is not installed (failed to load the Platform class).
If that sentence was confusing, it is even more confusing to a user. Even if they are technically adapt. This particular case was probably caused by FX "2.1" instead of "2.2" in the JNLP, and by using Webstart from a different JRE than intended. But it happens easily. Too easily. I guess we will have to make an FAQ or something for our customers to fix problems with Webstart. And currently we "fix" that by poking around until it runs... Worries me.

What happens if that JNLP I sent is used on a 64bit windows machine running Java 1.6. The URL looks to be 32bit specific so would it download a 32bit version of JFX into a 64bit JVM?
