Description
Now that we no longer support "modify mode" (as of 6u10), we shouldn't leave around the msi/msi files in the APPDATA folder.  The offline/online wrappers should delete them when the msi is finished running.

Comments
Bill suggested makes sense to fix this because it leaves behind ~75MB of msis after install, also the AppData dir is still 'Sun' and we should rename it to 'Oracle' as a part of this fix.
