Description
Somehow the previously instlled Java(TM)6 Family was corrupted, trying to remove it  
using Add / Remove Programs from Control Panel caused "Fatal error during installation" msg
Please see the attached snapshots. The installed JRE shows version: 6.0.100

With this Java(TM)6 Family, I could install / remove other JRE bundle, but there is always one Java(TM)6 Family left that can't be removed
