- "Java(TM) Web Start Launcher", which is internally associated with javaws.exe
it is the first option you must choose; definitely it is not java.exe, but you should not need to specify neither java.exe nor javaw.exe, explicitely.

I think this might be the problem...

You shouldn't have to click "Choose program", but just "Open with", and then choose from the list, if your Java installation worked correctly.
Maybe
