Java App CD Deployment...

I am developing a simple Java Stand Alone App that shall be deployed on a CD
and executed via AutoRun when the CD is inserted.

The App will have a few menu selections that shall launch System Apps like
the Default Internet Browser OR the default Quick Time Movie Player. I also
will launch another java program that I shall write to select and display
[full screen] .jpg digital photo's.

I thought I could load the JRE and the .class Java files [or a JAAR file] on
the CD and execute the App from the CD.

In my reading so far it sounds more complex.
It reads like I'll have to install the JRE on my users system before I
launch my App OR install Web Start.

Ideally the End Users PC will not know I've been there, i.e. everything will
be run from the CD.

I think that this is a common requirement and that I am overlooking
something.

Can someone please point me to someplace that would explain my options?

Regards,
Jim...
