I don't use Konqueror, but I'd guess this is a configuration option.

In a previous mail, you checked your java version by using 
/path/to/java/plugin -version. Your result was: java version "1.3.1_02"
You really want to check for the java executable, not the plugin. The 
plugin can be checked in Mozilla, click help -> about plugins

Check in /usr/java/ which is probably where the j2re package installed to.
If you installed the Sun rpm version, 'rpm -q j2re' should return the 
package name and version. If that works 'rpm -ql j2re' will list all the 
installed files. If not, use 'locate'. I get:
$ locate java | grep "bin/java"
/usr/java/j2re1.4.1/bin/java
/usr/java/j2re1.4.1/bin/java_vm

The j2re-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin file is the java installer and is 
for a different version (1.4.1-01 not 1.3.1_02). The file you have is the 
blackdown java installer, and does nothing until you run the installer. 
Before trying to do so, you should really figure out where your existing 
version is installed.
