silent install with WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL=H does not appear to work

982956Jan 4 2013 — edited Jan 17 2013

I have tried to install the jre-7u10-windows-i586.exe with flags: /s WEB_JAVA=1 WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL=H but after it is installed, when opening the control panel, the web security level is set to Medium.
This can also be changed by a normal user. The setting is saved in the CURRENT_USER part of the registry. There appears to be no similar entry in LOCAL_MACHINE.

I would have expected when the installer option has been used (as admin), the setting would be HIGH for all users and the user would not be able to change it.
What is the problem?

OS is Windows XP with all patches.
