CLASS EXCEPTION org.postgresql.Driver

I just installed PostgreSQL 8.1.4.1 and created a dbase named HotelDB. I
created tables using the dos (psql) prompt and very successful. The
above exception came up when I tried to connect my application using
JDBC:

Try{

Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver").newInstance();

System.out.println("Class Found");

}

catch(ClassNotFoundException ey){System.out.println("CLASS EXCEPTION " +
ey.getMessage());}

catch(InstantiationException ey){System.out.println("INSTANCE EXCEPTION
" + ey.getMessage());}

catch(IllegalAccessException ey){System.out.println("ACCESS EXCEPTION "
+ ey.getMessage());}

As advised, I copied postgresql-8.1-405.jdbc3.jar from C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\jdbc to my class path and the name of the file
included in my environment variable definition:

classpath\postgresql-8.1-405.jdbc3.jar;

when this did not work, I added the whole jdbc folder to my class path:
C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\jdbc

Since this did not work either I got this zip file
'postgresql-8.1-405.jdbc3' and unzip it in my class path and included
this path in my environment variables. Still no solution.

Another question, I could not find the folder containing the newly
created db(HotelDB) neither the database itself, though, as stated
earlier I can work on it using the psql and the pgAdmin.

Please help
