java-home

I went to the Environment Variables in 'System' in the control panel and made 2 new variables. one for user variables and one for system variables, both named JAVA_HOME and both pointing to

C:\Sun\SDK\jdk\bin

but for some reason, I still get the below error when running a java command...
