If you installed webstart, you can launch it form konqueror using
JavaTM Web Start 1.2  Start
(after reading http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/, I dare to try)

This application is requesting unrestricted acces to you local machine
and network ... It is highly recommended not to install and run this code.
