Seems like a great reason to move to OpenJDK. My instinct would be that if they are going to this kind of length to get you to register/use a cookie, honor their request - by downloading it locally and fetching it repeatably from a local location. Or by moving to OpenJDK.

Might be worth looking in there for inspiration.
