Description
FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.8.0_05"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_05-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode, sharing)


ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Win7 x64 (German)

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
This is update TO 8u5

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When installing the latest JRE (via jre-8u5-windows-i586-iftw.exe) the installer alerted me about changed security settings and asks if the should be restored. This is fine, however the dialog looks broken, the checkbox label "Java-Sicherheitsprompt-wie....." looks truncated and the "Weitere Informationen" seems unecesarily truncated. 

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Install JRE (update) and change security settings before

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Pretty Dialog which asks to reset settings
ACTUAL -
Not so pretty dialog: Screenshot here:

REPRODUCIBILITY :

I submited review https://java.se.oracle.com/code/cru/CR-JDK9CLIENT-359 for it already. While alex said that "More information" label is wrapped and should be fixed. I saw almost it is wrapped for all languages. I am fixing english version, but the width of this label is really sensitive, 68 will make it wrap and 71 make it center. Wish these will help.

Fix involves updating install/make/installer/bundles/windows/ishield/wrapper/common/common_de.rc: from CHECKBOX "Java-Sicherheits-Prompts wiederherstellen", IDC_RESTORE_SECURITY_CHECKBOX, 16, 140, 125, 16, BS_AUTOCHECKBOX to CHECKBOX "Java-Sicherheits-Prompts wiederherstellen", IDC_RESTORE_SECURITY_CHECKBOX, 16, 140, 225, 16, BS_AUTOCHECKBOX

I can not reach this dialog. What is "change security settings before" about? How to re-produce this bug?

This is installer code. Easy fix: just increase the size of the control to full width of the dialog container.
