Applet message popup: The application requires an earlier version of Java.

The popup message continues:

Do you want to continue?
The required version of Java, 1.6.0-oem, is not the latest and may not contain the latest security updates.

I am new to writing applets and I am encountering this message in IE7 and Firefox3.0.5

I have the latest JDK installed and use BlueJ to write my code.

An example of an applet that I see this message from exists at the following URL:
http://louisville.edu/~ahdeso01/applets/HowTo.html

This is not my applet, it is one I am using as a guide to learn.

Is there some change I need to make to my code or is this a browser issue?
