I was able to navigate to the ftp site find the "jre.xpi" file and 
double click it to download.

Mozilla prompted me to install the plugin.  I decided to take a
chance... and it worked!

So if anyone wants to do the above...open Mozilla ftp, double click...
install!

BTW...here's the link...

ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape6/english/6.01/unix/linux22/xpi/jre.xpi

(running 0.9)

Thanks!
