In order to clarify the problem, whenever you put a jar file in the packs section, PackJacket freezes when creating an installer while when you remove that jar file, PackJacket no longer freezes when creating an installer. Also I would like to know whether you have the "Use Pack200 compression" selected in the general section under optional advanced feature. If so when you uncheck that option and try creating an installer with a jar file in the packs section, does it still freeze while creating the installer.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
When ever a jar file is added and an exe installer is created the creation dialog just freezes when adding resources.

Deactivating the compression did solve the problem.
