Everytime I try to install Java 6.14, I receive the following error.

"Error 25009. Unzipping core files failed."

I have uninstalled all older versions of Java and I am still having problem installing Java. I had to do a system restore too 2007 not too long ago and the problem has been persistent since. I used Java's FAQ, and followed the instructions, but the process, " jqs.exe" is not running, so I cannot terminate the process, so I'm almost positive that's not the promblem. I would appreciate any help with this problem, as some programs cannot run without Java on my computer. Its running on Windows XP Professional.
