No, it will fail on mine. I have an English OS, but I have installed the applications in the folder "programs".
And as I said, the user might not even use the browser that you are trying to launch. I never use IE I do always use Firefox. Read my previous reply about the Desktop class, and the browse method.

Use the rundll32.exe and the FileProtocolHandler and url.dll in a call to runtime exec, and add the url you want to open.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c rundll32.exe url.dll,FileProtocolHandler http://www.google.com");
