Answer 1

I know this is a relatively old post, but some people can stumble on this page when doing a search for this problem.
Anyway, I ran into this on my PC after I installed Sybase which had an older jre.
Solution:
1. Run regedit
2. Look for Java Runtime Environment
You may have to do multiple searches. Eventually you'll find one with the version number.
3. Modify the value and change it to the correct version number. (in your case, you would have changed it from 1.4 to 1.6).
This is much quicker than reinstalling Java every time installing something that uses an older version of Java hoses up the registry value.
