When trying to install newly released Java 7 Update 6 for Mac, the installer terminates printing following error message:
A higher version of the JRE is already installed on this system

Deleting Java 7 Internet Plugin folder solves the problem (recommended way of uninstalling the beta), the installer is now able to run successfully.
