This is a known problem, and AFAIK mentioned somewhere on the kjava page. For 
https to work you need the JSSE libraries, which for versions older than 
Sun's JDK 1.4 you can download from the Sun website. JSSE comes as part of 
Sun's JDK/JRE 1.4. IBM's JDK (even 1.4) unfortunately does not contain the 
JSSE classes (they are probably not allowed to distribute them). Just install 
the JSSE jar into your jre's lib/ext directory and you should be ready to go.

Probably nothing to do for you, see above.
