Java 5 hit "end-of-life", that is, was officially retired by Sun on April 8,
2008, over two years ago. Java 6, the current version, was released to the
public on December 11, 2006, well over three years ago. Is there a particular
reason that you cannot use the current version of Java?

'SwingWorker' has been included with the current Java version for over three
years.

Whether you use Java 5 or 6, be quite sure to keep up to date with the minor
version, that is, the number after the underscore in "Java 1.6.0_20" or
"1.5.0_22". As in the case of these very latest versions, there are important
security fixes and bug fixes in the minor upgrades.

Download swing-worker-1.2.jar from <https://swingworker.dev.java.net/>.
Right click on your Projects > Libraries > Add JAR/Folder, and add the
JAR to the project.

On Mac OS X 10.5 and later, you can add Java 1.6 under Tools > Java
Platforms, if it's not already present.
