Updated to Update 13

==Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 1213==

Sun has skipped 3 update versions and has released Update 10 ~~and then Update 11 and Update 12~~ as the versions replacing Update 7.

Update 10 introduced some substantial changes, also in relation to the installation/uninstallation process we manage with WPKG: specifically it introduced a new binary "jqs.exe" and a service called "Java Quick Starter" starting it automatically at boot time.

Actually, with Update 10 and later Sun has introduced as default the so called "patch in place" update mechanism (see: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/otherFeatures/jre_install.html) which automatically removes the previous version of the same Java family (unless you turned off patch-in-place using the installer). So the line that tries to remove a previously installed Update 10 (msiexec /qn /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83216010FF}) is not strictly necessary (if you installed a 'Family JRE' and not a 'Static JRE').

The following installs JRE Update 12 13 and then removes the "Java Quick Starter" service; if you want to keep "Java Quick Starter" service then just remove the line with "jqs.exe -unregister", but remeber to stop/kill JQS before uninstallation.
