Ok, I had just grabbed the tarball off the snapshots directory...from July 2004! Woops. When I build the freenet-modern.nsi from CVS the freenet-webinstaller.exe detects Sun Java 1.5 but the version of freenet-webinstaller.exe in the snapshots directory doesn't...! The freenet-webinstaller.exe file in the snapshot directory is from December 2004.
