I received an email asking for help with the "Could not find the Main class"
error, in which they happened to mention that they were using the version of
Java that came with the bundled webinstaller .. j2re1.4.1_03!

Is this still the bundled version?? I seem to remember posts some time ago about
updating it to 1.5, but perhaps it never actually happened. If not it needs to
ASAP, apart from the fact that 1.4.1_03 is slower and buggier it has a serious
applet engine exploit! As a stopgap if this can't be done quickly, I would
propose removing the bundled installer link temporarily.

I would verify this myself, but due to the f?@$ing Soureforge throttling issue
the webinstaller download ETA is about 10 hours from now ...
