Mathematica plots implicit curves using ImplicitPlot, however, it's a
planar version only and as far as I am aware standard packages of Mathematica 
5.1 implement no 3D version. If you are able to parametrize the curve,
use ParametricPlot3D. Otherwise you're left to create a suitable
package yourself.
