For my Pentium IV, you must click on: Download JRE 6.

For me, after my research it is located here, I go
Code:
cd / usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.2/plugins /
2. We create a symbolic link to the virtual machine (jre) to the browser
Code:
ln-s / usr/java/jre1.5.0_04/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so / usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.2/plugins /
