The InnoDB Plugin has been included in MySQL since version 5.1.38, but it has to be installed.
MySQL 5.5/5.6 has the new InnoDB Plugin installed by default. You could just upgrade to 5.5/5.6
If you really want to stay with MySQL 5.1.69, you can go to the MySQL Documentation on how to do the install of the InnoDB Plugin : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/innodb-plugin/1.0/en/innodb-plugin-installation-dynamic-posix.html
