Description
Fix(4931190) broken on 1.4.2_11 but Passing with 1.4.2_10

Uninstalling j2re1.4.2_11 is not removing all the files/folders(<System-Drive>/Program Files\Java)

Testcase Location:
==================
/net/urts071.india/export6/testSuites/Regression/workspace_142/test/CTE_REGTEST/Generic/4931190

JDK:
====
java version "1.4.2_11"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_11-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_11-b02, mixed mode)

Operating System: Win XP-Home
================

Steps to reproduce:
===================
1. Uninstall any installed JDK/JRE from the system.
2. Make sure that ../Program Files/Java directory does not exists.
   (assuming that all previous jre was installed in default location)
3. delete 'Java' directory if still exists.
4. Install JRE in it's default location.
5. <system-drive>/Program Files/Java/<j2re version> directory will be created.
6. From Control Panel, uninstall/remove test jre which was just installed.

Expected behaviour:
===================
<System-Drive>/Program Files/Java directory is removed after uninstallation of jre.

Actual behaviour:
=================
'Java' directory is NOT removed from <drive>/Program Files/Java after uninstallation of jre.

Comments
EVALUATION The reason for Java directory not being removed after the installation is, because of the support added for Argentina Time zone in the code. This directory was found under the <boot drive>\Program Files\Java\Jre1.4.2_11\lib\zi\America\Argentina. Which i guess added for the CR 6332148 ((tz) Support tzdata2005n).
