xittix,
The java is not included in the WinXP.
This is in default by design as M$ has lawsuit with Sun.
You can download the latest Virtual machine (build 3802) to load java at this page.

http://www.microsoft.com/java/

Also read this article and be online and at command prompt, use the jview to inspect which version of java is being used.

You can also opt for Sun's JVM if you would prefer.  Check the Sun Microsystems website for further info.
