Well i had developen a sismilar application long back ...
it was an alarm system .
whenever an alarm triggered i had to pop up a message on the screen
and play a sond

 i had achived it with dialog in awt..

 public void optionPane(String message,Component c)
 {
         JOptionPane optionPane = new JOptionPane(message,
JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
     optionPane.setOpaque(false);
     final JDialog dialog = optionPane.createDialog(c,
             " Image Uploader");
     dialog.setVisible(true);

 }

for audio i had used AudioClip (applet class)

import java.applet.*;
AudioClip ac = getAudioClip(getCodeBase(), soundFile);
ac.play(); //play once
ac.stop(); //stop playing
ac.loop(); //play continuously

also we have sun api for playing sound...

How can I do to achieve a windows that behaves like Task Manager for
Windows? It's always in front of every windows even though I change
focus on other application.

country. Why would they accept that?"
