I know that the JDK is used for compiling, I was just pointing out that the other java program that is posted here requires compiling.
However, mine is already compiled and put in a jar file. Try executing it, GBIT, and if it doesn't work, then try downloading the latest JRE from Apple at: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/java/ (I don't see why Sun doesn't bother putting the file on their servers...) Here is a direct link to the download page if you can't find it.

If this doesn't work (and I don't see why not, Sun points to Apple's java page), then there is no hope, for now.
