You can use ORACLE's 64-bit Java JRE starting from version 1.6.0_12 possible for Windows Vista 64-bit, this contains that 64-bit browser plugin.

11. Applet example in Opera 32 bit with Windows 32/64 bit.
      64-bit versions of Opera are available only for FreeBSD and Linux.
 
On the first loading of the java applet with Opera - the message - cannot find the file "msvcr71.dll"  is issued.
Nevertheless it is in the directory C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.(v) \bin.  
Extending the path specification under Start / Settings / Control Panel / Advanced system settings / Environment variables / System variables / Path with »C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.(v) \bin« solved this problem.
See environment variables.
(v) = Version
