SEO SpyGlass is written using the latest Java technology, so you must have the latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 1.5 or later (available at Sun Microsystems™ web site), installed before you install SEO SpyGlass.
If you are installing for Mac OS X, you already have Apple's JRE installed, though you can find updates for your Java VM at http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/java/.
Windows users should visit the http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp page to download and install Java.
Linux users can probably find a decent version of Java already in their favorite distribution. Debian GNU/Linux users should visit the http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp page to download and install Sun's Java.
Debian Update: Recently Sun Java has made its way into official Debian repositories. So now a simple apt-get update should get you started.
