Will Microsoft JVM be uninstalled after Service Pack 3 installed?

I have a CD of Service Pack 3 and Microsoft JVM Removal Tool 1.0a as well.

I plan to make clean install of Windows XP Service Pack 1 soon (Microsoft
JVM is not uninstalled yet.) Then I will install Service Pack 3. However, I
wonder whether Microsoft Java Virtual Machine will be uninstalled after
Service Pack 3 installed.

If it will not be uninstalled, should I use Microsoft JVM Removal Tool to
uninstall it after Service Pack 3 installed? Or, should I better do it before
Service Pack 3 installed?
 
Is that Service Pack 1 or 1a ? 1a does not include the MSJVM.

To determine if you are running the Microsoft VM, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. Type cmd, and then click OK.
3. At the command prompt, type jview and then press ENTER.

If you are not running the Microsoft VM, you receive the following error message:
'jview' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

IF this is indeed SP1 then the MSJVM will be installed along with XP.
Applying SP3 to it will *not* remove the MSJVM. MS can *not* include
their JVM in any of their current software but are not under any court
order to remove it from software previously released before said court
order.

Run the JVM uninstaller after your clean installation of SP1. Even if you
run it after installing SP3 it makes no difference.
 
Anyone know how to install MSJVM on a XP SP3 install. jview reports ERROR could not locate java virtual machine : Class not registered
