When you installed JRE on your machine files with extension
'jar' should be associated to 'java' intepreter which in turn
should be in your 'PATH' env. variable.

I think either smth. was wrong during installation (BTW I also
use win98) and assosciation doesn't work or 'java' is not in your
'PATH'.

Try this:
- start DOS window
- type 'java'
If you can start Java interpreter this way it means it should be in
your path and the reason of that problem is in association. For that
try to go to POV-Tree directory and start it:
java -jar povtree.jar

If that works smth. is definetly wrong with association. Try to
add that association manually. Again that association should be
done during JRE installation (if it was successful).

Hope this helps.
Let me know if it still doesn't work.
