It is because incorrect class is used: Installer.class.getClass().getResourceAsStream() but Installer.class.getResourceAsStream() should be used.
Verification of this fix (or that it does not break anything): Enable registration using -J-Dnb.registration.enabled=true (if not yet neabled in build), disable networking, start IDE and invoke Help -> Register. Local (offline) registration page should be diaplyed in browser with URL eg.: file:///home/mslama/.netbeans-registration/6.5/register.html (of course home directory path might change according to actual user)).
