Description
when we launch java web start with:

javaws http://your_jnlp.jnlp

Java Web Start will go out to the url to get the jnlp file, even if there is cached copy.

We should use the cached copy to launch if possible to improve start up time.  (our update check later in the launching process will pick up the updated jnlp file if there is any)
