Are you sure its the correct version you are trying to install?
To get the newest update of Java, go here: Link
You need to get the one named Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 6, its number 5 on the list.
Download it to desktop.
Uninstall all old : Java, JRE and Java Webstart.
Reboot your machine.
Install new Java update.
See if that will work.
Some firewalls can/will block Java installs / downloads.
So one to try is doing it offline. (Remember to have downloaded desktop install version of Java first)
Remove connection to net.
Disable your firewall, follow the procedure given above.
Remember to turn on Firewall again before connecting to the net.
It can also be some other security application blocking for new install. So you might want to check that also.
