math - Project Euler #10 Java solution not working

I'm trying to find the sum of the prime numbers < 2,000,000. This is my solution in Java but I can't seem get the correct answer. Please give some input on what could be wrong and general advice on the code is appreciated.

Printing 'sum' gives: 1308111344, which is incorrect.

Edit: Thanks for all the help. Changed int to long and < to <= and it worked flawlessly, except for being an inefficient way of finding prime numbers :)

/*
The sum of the primes below 10 is 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 17.
Find the sum of all the primes below two million.
*/
class Helper{
 public void run(){
  Integer sum = 0;
  for(int i = 2; i < 2000000; i++){
   if(isPrime(i))
    sum += i;   
  }
  System.out.println(sum);
 }

 private boolean isPrime(int nr){
  if(nr == 2)
   return true;
  else if(nr == 1)
   return false;
  if(nr % 2 == 0)
   return false;

  for(int i = 3; i < Math.sqrt(nr); i += 2){
   if(nr % i == 0)
    return false;
  }  
  return true;  
 }
}   
class Problem{
 public static void main(String[] args){
  Helper p = new Helper();
p.run();
}
}

The result will be too large to fit into an integer, so you are getting an overflow. Try using a BigInteger or a long instead. In this case a long is enough.
