Jim,
  I don't think there is a WEB-INF directory under %CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/
in the default installation.  I'd suggest that you put the class file in
the %CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/ examples/WEB-INF/classes directory and then
attempt to run the servlet by putting
localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorldServlet in the address of your
browser.

Regards,

Richard
