Trouble with "New User?" link in new Meeting URL

Vic/all:

I went to the url below and saw the nice shpiel about the class.  Since
I also saw the "New User?" link I clicked on it and then clicked on the
"Setup" button.  I have a nice and fast internet connection so when I
was clocking for a while, knew something was wrong.  Sure enough, here's
what i see in the Java console:

Java(TM) Plug-in: Version 1.3.1
Using JRE version 1.3.1 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
User home directory = C:\WINNT\Profiles\gr10831.000

----------------------------------------------------
c:   clear console window
f:   finalize objects on finalization queue
g:   garbage collect
h:   display this help message
l:   dump classloader list
m:   print memory usage
q:   hide console
s:   dump system properties
t:   dump thread list
x:   clear classloader cache
0-5: set trace level to <n>

So looks like I am running an old Java plugin? I *had* changed my
Java_home/path to point to the jasic/JRockit(/bin) folder, as mentioned
in your lab0, so somehow that folder doesn't have the updated plugin?
(I used to only have Java 1.31 on my machine before I unzipped your
jasic.zip.)

So where do I go from here? I thought I'd go download a new Java plugi,
but it seems astonishingly hard to find a download site for just the
plugin: seems like you have to download the entire sdk and you get the
plugin as a free gift along the way..

If anyone has any advice at this point, it will sure be appreiated! I
will go download sdk 1.4.1 if that's the only way out... :(
Thanks very much in advance!
