Thank you Phillip. I've looked now where you suggested, but Eclipse's installed JRE looks right, and my experiment with pointing it to a different JRE has not fixed it.

The Macromedia Homesite installation did mess with some things I wish it wouldn't have, such as by adding "Set Program Access and Defaults" to the menu which rises above my Start button, in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINNT\Start Menu. I note that one option in that "Set Program Access and Defaults" is "Choose a default virtual machine for Java". But it is set by default to "Use my current virtual machine for Java" and not to the alternative "Microsoft Virtual Machine". So maybe that is harmless.

Did the Macromedia Homesite install, by any chance, install it's own
java runtime?  If so, that might have something to do with what's
going on.  You might trying going into the Eclipse preferences,
look under

Preferences -> Java -> Installed JRE's

and make sure your "real" JDK is selected.

I had a similar problem after installing Oracle on a machine with Eclipse, and it turned out to be the Oracle installed JRE that was
the problem, in some fashion.
