Unable to launch the application

[rijn]

Could someone plz help me with this. I have never been able to get the auto-updater installed from: http://updater.pala.de/. I have always just done manual install as a result but I don't think the manual install is updated anymore so I wanna get this going.

I click 'Launch' Java loads and I get the error window saying 'unable to launch the application.' Under details it has this info:

Exception:

are you running it as Administrator?

Not sure how to check that? Just go into the Java directory and and check javaws preferences? I have UAC turned off on the machine and my account is the only account and it is an admin account. When I go to browse to C:Program Files (x86)\Java\JRE6\bin and right click javaws.exe it does not allow me to set 'Run this program as an administrator,' its greyed out.

Right click on the desktop Icon of the Updater
Choose Properties
Compatibilty Tab
At the very bottom theres a box tick that (run this program as admin.)

the updater itself never actually installs, all I have is the html link in the downloaded zip file that points to http://updater.pala.de/, and the profitui.jnlp. Whenever I try to run the jnlp, either via the 'Launch' button or by clicking the jnlp file on my desktop, I get the above error.
