When an install.jar is created with IzPack 4.3.4 and then wrapped it in an executable .exe file using launch4j the install wizard fails when the IzPack ShortcutPanel is displayed. Before this, the wizard successfully loads the application jar, the iz uninstaller and other files to
the nominated Program Files folder. But when the ShortcutPanel is reached, the executable freezes instead of displaying the Setup
Shortcuts information for the desktop, start menu and program group info. If the IzPack install.jar is not wrapped, the
whole installation process is completely trouble free without any problem with the shortcut panel whereas wrapping the install.jar causes the install to
break down.

    The problem is only encountered with Windows 7. XP is ok, Vista is untried.

    Is there an update on this bug? We seem to be hitting the same issue on launch4j v. 3.0.2.
