I'm sorry.  These guys seem to be ignoring you.
Please allow me to apologize for them.

You'll have to download Java on your own from Sun.
What you're more than likely looking for is:
================================================
Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v. 1.4.2
and NetBeans IDE 3.5.1
Software Cobundle for the Linux Operating System
	

This download contains both the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition (Java 2 
SDK), v. 1.4.2 for the Linux operating system and the NetBeans IDE 3.5.1 
integrated development environment.
================================================
and can be downloaded from:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
