    I'm not able to create a new guest XP image in Parallels such that I can get Java Web launcher to install in Windows Runtime. It keeps offering the Mac OSX Java Web Lauancher .jnlp file. How do I get the Windows launcher installed and disable Mac applications from showing up in Windows runtime??

    I'm trying to start a .jnlp application in a Windows XP guest OS. Default is for Parallels to try and open the OS X Java Web Start app. If I try to coerce XP into opening the jnlp file with the XP version of java web start (via "open with...") the web start app tries to load Java 6 and then 'blings' and stops long before the jnlp app begins to initialise.

    Any suggestions about how I can get the XP instance of java web start to work would be most appreciated.
