You need to download the Java Plugin for XP, regardless of what version. Microsoft made a big stink about including Java in XP because they've been fighting with Sun over the specs (too open and free-flowing for Microsloth).

About 5.5MB download... it will self-install, no restart is necessary (don't you love having 2000/XP?!). After that, run the Gnotella setup!

I've also used the Java version of LimeWire (sucks in comparison to Gnotella) with perfect results.
