JDK :jdk1.6.0_06

-Install NB

The software needed for this command (updatetool.bat) is not installed.
Press any key to install the necessary software, or Ctrl-C to quit.
After software installation is completed you may re-run this command.

Press any key to continue . . . 

-But from the above information it doesn't allow the user to Press any key to continue . . . or Ctrl-c to quit at any time.

Actually, you should never have to press a key to get it to continue (if you do, file a bug on that, providing OS
version and JDK version)

The message is coming from the tool.  I can't easily screen for it (it could come in any language), so I just let it go.
 The update tool process input stream has already been given some input to read that should cause it to just keep going
after that message is printed.

It may be possible in NB 7.0 to run this in the terminal window that is being implemented.

Lowering to P5.

examine after 7.0
Comment 3 Vince Kraemer 2009-04-02 18:57:16 UTC 
this could be resolved as part of implementing issue 161802

Verified in NetBeans 7.3 build, now the message seems to be different:

The software needed for this command (updatetool) is not installed.

If you choose to install Update Tool, your system will be automatically
configured to periodically check for software updates. If you would like
to configure the tool to not check for updates, you can override the
default behavior via the tool's Preferences facility.

When this tool interacts with package repositories, some system information
such as your system's IP address and operating system type and version
is sent to the repository server. For more information please see:

Once installation is complete you may re-run this command.

Would you like to install Update Tool now (y/n):
