Description
Java Update Notification dialog includes some static text and some dynamic text. The dynamic text, currently "Java(TM) 6 Update 2 includes features and fixes to accelerate your Java applications as well as updates to keep Java secure." which is displayed inside a text area is in English, while the rest of the dialog is localized.

This applies to all locales and has happened from the beginning of Java Update feature. We never knew this dialog could be localized.

  xxxxx@xxxxx   and I tested a localized xml file in UTF-8 encoding. The dialog showed up with garbled characters in the dynamic text area, meaning the code is probably not internationalized.   xxxxx@xxxxx   agreed to look into the code that handles the xml file further.

Fixed the bug in the code and now all text elements from xml file are
localized properly.
