From a terminal, type 'whereis java'. It should be something like /usr/local/java/java. Replace 'java' in jbidwatcher.sh with the full path to the java binary '/usr/local/java/java' (or whatever the path is on your system. Just to make sure I'm explaining this good enough, this should not affect the 'cd /...' line in jbidwatcher.sh, just the line that tries to execute the .jar file. Now go to "tools > execute shell command" again and tell us what errors it gives, if any. HTH, Jacob -- GnuPG Key: 1024D/16377135 Random .signature #14: Linux, the way to get rid of boot viruses.
