Tuesday July 08, 2008 JDK 6 Update 7 Java VisualVM and VisualVM 1.0 released
After eight months of frantic development since VisualVM Preview 1 was released I'm happy to announce the general availability of JDK 6 Update 7 Java VisualVM and VisualVM 1.0 (java.net).
What's new?
Well, mainly that if you download and install JDK 6 Update 7 on your machine running VisualVM will be as simple as calling <jdk-home>/bin/jvisualvm.
VisualVM comes with a set of plugins available for download from the VisualVM Plugin Center. In order to enhance VisualVM's core functionality go to "Tools | Plugins" and give a try to any of the available plugins or even better extend the tool by writing your own plugins using the VisualVM APIs for plugin developers.
Visit http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp or https://visualvm.dev.java.net for download or to get more information.
Use feedback at visualvm.dev.java.net mailing list to send us your feedback.
Have fun!

hi there,
thanks for the note about jdk 1.6.7. I downloaded it and tried running jvisualvm. it came up. good to notice that it can look at 1.4 JVMs as well :-)
I tried to download the plugins you mentioned above by going to TOOLS | PLUGINS. no plugins there. I thought issue with proxy server settings. I tried launching the proxy settings by clicking on the button "Proxy settings" BUT nothing happened after the click.
I'm on a 3 GB windows XP SP2 box.
enough hard drive space as well.
Any ideas ?
Thank you,
BR,
~A

This is a known issue:

The workaround is to set the proxy settings at the OS level.

yes the proxy settings in visualVM has a bug
I spent an hour to find out what was the parameters to use...
try this
jvisualvm -J-DproxyHost=my.proxy.com -J-DproxyPort=8080
It would be nice to put it in the troubleshootings page...
Anyway thanks a lot for this tool!
