Select "open with > Java SCE," or something similar.

The recommended program to open with is Java(TM)Platform SE binary

Try it with a different .jar, perhaps it's something in that particular file.

Nope, nothing happens when I try to run all my .jar files.

Are there other programs you can open it with that have Java in their name?
