I had the same problem, and I discovered the only way I could make the program 
work 
was to have Java running PRIOR to executing the .jar file.  And it would only 
work 
from the command line.  It would not work at all when "double-clicking" the 
.jar 
file.  Depending on your file associations, the program javaw.exe may be 
invoked 
when you double-click the filename, rather than the necessary java.exe.

So, to get the thing to work, I first needed to get Java running.  You can do 
this 
by opening a web site that uses Java, such as:

http://www.chess.com/play/computer.html

You should see the little Java icon in the lower right-hand corner of your 
monitor, 
indicating the java.exe is running.  You can also verify that java.exe is 
running by 
opening the Windows Task Manager (CTRL + ALT + DELETE).  Once I had Java 
running, I 
could execute the .jar file by opening a command prompt window, navigating to 
the 
folder where my .jar file is, and enter the following command:

java -jar google-sites-liberation.1.0.1.jar

You should see the Import/Export untility appear on your screen.  I had a 
few "gotchas" with the utility as well.  In order to get the Export to work, I 
had 
to enter the information like so:

Host:  sites.google.com
Domain:  <Leave this blank>
Webspace:  lornamichael2
Username:  <Your Google Sites user name>
Password:  <Your Google Sites password>

I hope this helps.
