Description:
The app says it requires jre 1.4.2 or 1.5. However it does not run in 1.4.2, and it cannot be built with a 1.4.2 jdk (it complains about a version number). It does work fine with the 1.5 jre.

How to repeat:
Remove jre 1.5. Install jre 1.4.2. Attempt to run Migration Toolkit.

Suggested fix:
Lower the class version numbers to be compatible with 1.4.2.

If this is not possible, change the documentation to reflect the suported java environment.
