Details

After installing Mozilla on this machine, it placed an icon on the desktop for
all users, which my wife tryed to open from her seperate account on this
machine. It failed to open, giving an error saying that Java hadn't been
properly installed.
Browser starts and runs fine from my account, which is the one I installed it
from. (mine has administrative properties, my wife's does not. don't know if
that's relevant)

Browser, not engine. Reassigning to Installer component -
This is probably a duplicate of one of the bugs that bug 41057 depends on.
Reporter, this looks a lot like bug 62822 which is a duplicate of bug 41057.
Could you please drop a comment here saying whether you think this bug is also a
duplicate of bug 41057?
Thank you alot!
Fabian.
Sending to XPCOM component cuz bug 41057 is also there

Good call. I gave administrator privileges to the account mozilla refused to 
start from, and voila! Worked just fine. Marking as a dup of 41057, sorry to 
have wasted your time.
