I got as far as step 3, but the link to the Java Foundation Classes doesn't seem to work for me. Any ideas?

Hmm. I thought it was a stable download link, but maybe it's one of those Sun "we leave this link working temporarily when you download the package, then change it" links. I hate those.

You can go to http://www.javasoft.com/jfc/ and download the software from there, by following the links to download Swing 1.1.1 for MacOS.
