Java-script is a scripting language interpreted by you browser and is not installed on you PC like compiled software. Java, which is a programming language is installed by downloading JRE for www.sun.com.
If you browser is not running Java-script while viewing web-page, (eg: youtube) that is in you browser options, you probably need to enable JS in you settings. google "enable javascript YourBrowserGoesHere".
Now clicking on a .user.js link triggers Greasemonkey to pop up the script installation panel. Greasemonkey shows you a list of what sites the script will run on and ask if you want to install the script.
Now loading a web page results in additional code (the userscript) being run.
