and got yahoo imagery for that area with the WMS plugin.  Is this the area
you tried as well?  The imagery looked to be high resolution.  Maybe you
need to clear your JOSM plugin directory and reinstall wmsplugin?

The memory issue could just be a matter of case sensitivity.  Note the
capital "X" and "M" in -Xms512M and -Xmx512M.  Java does seem to be case
sensitive even on Windows.
