Warning: Click 'No.' when asked to install the Public JRE !!!
(Meaning, only install the JRockit JVM as 'additional' JVM for running the Wax Monster application!)

which may be a security risk because there are no security updates for JRockit anymore! (since 2013)



Click "Next" to start the installation...



Click "Done" to close the installer dialog.
