It worked for me, using JDK 6u5. The only problem I had was the tedious business of dnloading 65megs via modem and have the file transfer become interrupted. <sigh> So, best to sign in for a free account first ...just in case. Then you are supposed to be able to resume. It only took me two nights to get it ...someone just shoot me. Once you finally get the file, follow Knute's instructions and it's a cakewalk. Thank you Knute. You may wish to update the page to show the newest version. Again, thanks!
