I am not sure if you tried this or not, but I would try to installthe package
again as 'sudo' or the 'root' user on your system.
I don't know if you have admin rights as your normal user,so I'm only taking a
guess here. Also, the .bin filejdk-6u18-linux- x64.bin needs to be made
executable if I'm not mistaken,and since "root" is the owner of that file, you
need to be root(or use "sudo") to run the chmod command below.

if you are inside the directory wherejdk-6u18-linux- x64.bin exists, then you
issue the commandsudo chmod +x jdk-6u18-linux- x64.bin

I'm not sure what the characters below are indicative of, but I perceive
that you didn't use the package management system to install the JDK.

Go to system->administration->package management, entering your password
when prompted for administrative access, select the sun java jdk from
the list, and click to install it.

Unless you are developing Java code, JDK is not needed. If you are installing
Java for its JavaScript capability to view websites from your browser (as
JavaScript is used to display many websites), then all that is necessary to
install is JRE.
